These Titan Chain diamond-pattern chains are great winter weather chains. If you live in an area where you're likely to get periodic snow and ice, these chains are perfect because they're durable and easy to mount. And they're lightweight and compact, so they store in your vehicle nicely too.
These chains are among the easiest and fastest to install because they have built-in tensioners that you can just pull taut to adjust the fit. These tensioners allow the chains to fit your tires, no matter the profile or wear pattern. And because the tensioners are built-in, you never have to worry about losing them like you might with other chains on the market.
SAE Class S tire chains are designed for use on passenger vehicles with restricted wheel-well clearance. Most newer cars, vans, and small trucks - especially those with large aftermarket tires - will require Class S chains. If you're unsure about the class of your vehicle, consult your vehicle's user manual.
These chains will fit your tires provided there is both:
If you know your tire size, you may think you won't need to test fit your new chains. But there are a lot of variables that can affect whether chains will fit your specific tires, including your tire type, the amount of air pressure in the tire, the amount of tread wear, and the tire manufacturer. You'll also need to know how much clearance is in your wheel well, which you can determine by measuring from your tire tread to the sidewall of the wheel well.
We recommend that you order chains as early in the season as possible to give yourself plenty of time to test fit the chains and reorder if needed. This way, you won't be stuck out in the cold later with snow chains that don't fit.
You can test fit these chains in your garage or driveway, but you'll want to wait until there's snow on the ground to actually drive with them. Likewise, if you're out in the snow and come across bare pavement, you'll want to pull over and remove the chains. These chains can cause damage to the bare pavement, your garage floor, or your vehicle if they break from the wear of riding on a harsh surface.
Installing these chains is incredibly simple.
1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks.
2. Spread the chain around the back of the tire.
3. Connect the ends of the cable, which will sit behind the tire.
4. Around front, connect the 2 ends of the yellow side chain using the green hook at the top of the tire.
5. At the bottom of the tire, feed the silver tensioning chain through the red channel bracket and pull it taut. Then run the tensioner through as many red clips along the side chain as you can, leaving room to still be able to stretch the hook across the tire.
6. Attach the hook to the side chain directly across from the last clip you ran the tensioner through. The hook should face away from your tire. Pull your vehicle forward 2-3 vehicle lengths and recheck the tension.

Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Chevrolet Spark, you're going to be taking a look at, I'm going to show you how to install the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains, part number: TC1525.These chains are going to have a diamond pattern to give you more tire coverage and a much smoother ride. Chains, their selves, are going to be D-link style. They're going to have two flat edges to give you more surface-to-surface contact between the tire and the roadway, and also they're going to wear more evenly. Our inside chains are going to have painted surfaces, so they're not cold to the touch. They're also going to be color-coded connection points for easy installation.What's great about these chains is we don't have to get down in the snow to install them. They're going to be SAE Class S rated for vehicles with limited wheel-well clearance, come in a quantity of two and come with a nicer carrying case for easy stowage.Keep in mind, we have installed these chains on tire size 185/5515.
Make sure you double check your tire size so you pick up the right set of chains. Now that we've taken a look at some of the features, let me show you how to get them installed.First thing you want to do is you're going to lay your chain out, make sure you don't have any kinks or knots in the chains. Next thing we want to do is you want to make sure that the yellow side is towards the back of the vehicle. We're going to take either end, you take the yellow side, you're going to go in front of the tire and come around the back. Take the other side, you're going to go around the back and come out the front.
You notice there's a V here. We want that in the center of the tire, on the inside. We'll take this end, go around the back, pull it around til this red piece is in the front.Next, we're going to take one end that has the hook in it, the other end is going to have the tab, we're going to come up behind the tire and we're going to lock them together. Next, we're going to take this extra yellow chain link, we're going to hook it onto this green hook. Next, we're going to push our cable back behind.
We're going to move our chain around til we get it even. Then we're going to take our gray chain and we're going to wrap it around this red hook. Then we'll pull to tighten it up. Then we're going to take our rubber tensioner, we're going to feed it through the red rings, stretch our cable across and hook it. Want to make sure you hook across, and not down.Once you've installed one, you're going to repeat the process on the other side of the vehicle.
Get in the vehicle, drive it forward a few feet, check the tension and make any adjustments necessary.That'll do it for a look at and installation on the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains, part number: TC1525, on our 2018 Chevrolet Spark.
