Note: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if they might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.
These Titan Chain ladder-pattern snow chains are great winter weather chains for your vehicle. The cross chains have a zinc finish, further adding to the durability and longevity of these chains. The square links - which dig into snow and ice better than traditional twist links - are made of a corrosion-resistant alloy steel, so they last 2-3 times longer than standard low-carbon chains. But if you're more likely to see seriously icy conditions where you live, you may instead want a chain with square or V-bar links that can really bite into the ice for more traction.
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 simple.
1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks.
2. Drape the chains over your tires, making sure that the prongs attaching the cross chains to the side chains face away from your sidewalls.
3. On the back of the tire, pull the chain tight and hook the ends together. Repeat this on the side chain on the front of the tire, then clamp the lever to fasten extra chain links and keep them from flapping as you drive.
4. Insert the included tool into the cam and twist to tighten the sidewall chain. Twist as many cams as it takes to get a tight fit.
5. Drive forward 2-3 vehicle lengths and recheck the chain tension. Tighten any loose cams. If needed, rubber adjusters (sold separately) can be used to get a tight fit. Make sure the hooks on the adjusters face away from your tire so your wheels don't get scratched.
Quick Tips:
To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire.

Get excellent traction in extreme conditions with these long-lasting zinc-coated alloy tire chains. Square links and ladder pattern provide traction for your vehicle in snow, on ice, and off-road. Cams allow quick and easy tensioning.We purchased these chains for our Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 conversion. I only did a dry fit so far. I can say that these square link chains are heavy duty and appear well made. Cam tighteners snug the chains down tight and the adjusters should keep everything in place. I'll update after use.
I was conserned about 5.5 mil chains but these will never break. Cross links are amaizing
These square link will never break. HD I do not think I would want to go very far on the highway. They are stout

We at Penn Twp Berks County Love them!!! They’re easy to install. Love the tightening cams. The two original sets we purchased have held up nicely. Only had to make one repair which was the hook that attaches the cross chain to the main chain. The chains we used in the past seemed to be needing a repair every few runs. So with that being the case we just purchased two more sets just to have on hand. Thank you for an excellent product!!!
I have used these chains in Colorado on an icy road towing a trailer and in muddy conditions towing a much larger truck and trailer out of a muddy circumstance. The chains were easy to install - even in the mud and ice and performed fabulously. Make sure you tighten them up well. I have loved these chains.
Seem like good quality but they are too big for my 35x12.5r20 tires. It says they fit that size but they are very loose even with the hook and tensioner on the tightest link and all the cams tightened down even after driving a little with them installed. I have the rubber tensioners which help but I think the cam tensioners are going to come loose. Not feeling great about trying to use them for real in the snow. I figured these would fit great since the etrailer installation video for this chain had the exact same size tires.
Have not used them yet. To warm in the North east right now. Very nice chains. I'm sure they will work. Could us a carry bag though. I'll buy a small tool bag for them...
etrailer delivered these quickly, as always. The chains themselves are pretty good, but not perfect. The chains look nice when new, but the finish wore off immediately on the first use, which led to rust immediately. Maybe that's expected? The storage bag is fine for shipping, but not great for storing, so have a plan for that. My biggest issue is that the cam tightening wrench that came with the chains is really soft metal and twisted badly on the first install (not much pressure IMO). I do't trust it now as it will likely break...it's twisted bad. I also ordered the TCTH3 wrench with the chains as it was listed as an accessory. The flat doesn't fit into the cams, it's too big. Not good to figure this out in the field. Luckily I had two sets of chains so I was able to use the wrench from the other set to remove the chains.
To summarize, the chains themselves work fine as chains, just wish they had a better finish. The cam wrench is terrible...not sure what to do about that yet. The accessory wrench doesn't fit the cams.
Seems to fit well and easy to install. A little practice to get the fit right. Heading up to Mammoth, looks like they are expecting about 4 feet of snow.
etrailer is excellent as always. Superfast shipping.
Great product; great customer service; great website and videos - setting the bar pretty high for the competition
First time to ever put on chains. Took me less than 10 min to figure it out and install. Easy on easy off and easy storage. Price was great. Shipping was extremely fast and 2 follow up emails from customer service to make sure I was happy. etrailer is a great company
Used in a foot of snow in NW CO and I got up and down every road that we went on.
Chains are great. Turn 3/4 ton truck into a mountain goat/tractor. Will take you anywhere. Heavier than buddys chains and the square links that make them bite better than round links ride rougher when you hit clear pavement. I would say these are best for offroad, dirt road, covered roads scenario and not great for people who are gonna spend most time riding over a plowed road, where the “slinky stretched over rubber cable” design excels.
REALLY great set of tire chains. Easy to put on.
etrailer is a GREAT company to order from.
I received my order on the 2nd day. great response time. haven't open it yet, winter is a little ways off so i won't Know my satisfaction or dislike till that time comes I plan on this weekend to put both, the blind spot mirrors, and my boat mirror on. I live in Florida so I will know about the boat mirror soon. I bought a little Jeep wrangler for my son who lives in upstate NY (Adirondack mts.) . he owns a restaurant up there and when it snows they charge him a pretty penny to plow it.so I got to get the jeep up there, buy and install a plow for it and walla! thank you for your concern! i'll let you know how it all shakes out.
First order of product arrived damaged and snow chains were rusty and appears to be used product. I contacted etrailer and they responded immediately. I had to send photo's which was understandable. They responded within the next day, and sent instructions for return of product and sent out replacements. I received the replacements in 5 days. Chains are in good condition and appear to be unused and new. Have not tried them out, and it looks like it may be a while before we have snow arriving in our area. I will be returning the first order immediatly and thank etrailer for quick and easy solution.
Heavy duty tire chains really worked well in our snowy area. They are fairly easy to put on, and they really grip the snow, with their square chains in the gripping area. They are made of high-quality materials, and the side chains are plated. The unique adjusters are very cool, and eliminate the need for bungees to keep things tight. I am very satisfied.
Getting ready for winter, searched the web and local tire shops for tire chains for my 2019 Toyota Tundra. I found that etrailer.com had the best prices on the above chains plus FREE SHIPPING out to Oregon. The chains arrived on the day they stated. After ups dropped them off I installed them on the Tundra to make sure of a good fit. They fit perfectly. I'll be doing more business with etrailer.com in the future! Thank you Rick
To be honest, I have a 4 x 4 and so the chains are a backup item and more for off road applications. I used them once so far, and they performed very good - easy to put on and gave me a lot of extra traction. I also like the cam tightening feature as it makes larger chains easier to get tight. I would anticipate them to do the same again and am sure they will last me several years.
Received the chains promptly and I feel, for a very fair price. The day after the chains were delivered I got a text from my son with photos, both he and his girlfriend had been successful elk hunting in the mountains. He secured permission from a landowner to allow me to drive in to get closer for retrieving their 2 bulls. With a foot of snow on ice, the chains did a wonderful job getting us out and providing a secure feeling on the otherwise treacherous mountain two track. I chained up in front only (as I normally do) unless I’m in very deep snow. The cams tightened the chains well but I always use tensioners anyway for added insurance. Great job as always etrailer! Many thanks!
