These Titan Chain ladder-pattern chains are great winter weather chains for your truck. The rounded twist links provide traction in deep snow - and some traction on ice - and they give you a smoother ride than traditional square links. 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.
4. 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.
5. Drive forward 2-3 vehicle lengths and recheck the chain tension. Rubber adjusters (sold separately) can be used to help give you 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.

Now it would be a totally good idea to keep a set of chains in your car when you're experiencing any inclement weather and you want to go out and travel in it. Having a set of chains could get you out of a sticky situation.Now the chains have a ladder pattern, which is gonna give you great traction through starts and stops. And they have a low carbon steel construction, so it's going to be strong and durable.Now the chains is gonna have a max speed rating of 30 miles per hour. And they come in a set of two in this nice canvas bag that's going to make for easy storage.Now if you have an all wheel drive Pathfinder, you want to have a set for the back tires.
Just use the same part number.Now that we've gone over some of those features, let's show you how easy they are to get installed. I've got my chains laid out and basically you want to look them over to make sure there are not broken link and no other twists or kinks in them. Once you've done that, you've got them ready to go on your tire. What we're gonna do is come and grab them in the middle and then drape them over the top and sides. And you want to make sure you get it as even as possible on both sides.
Now here in the back we're gonna make our first connection. We have our hook right here, and we have these extra links. So what we're gonna do is take this first link and just get it on that hook. We don't want it to be too tight so once we get this first link on you can see how it's still kind of draping like that what's you want. Now up here in the front we'll make our other connection.
We're just going to take the same number of links that we used in the back. We're going to put it over this lever and we're going to pull back and put it on that actual link to lock it into place.Now the chains are pretty tight, but just to be sure that they stay on and snug we're going to use one of these rubber tensioners. You pick these up here at etrailer.com. And we're gonna put it on. We're going to come from behind and hook it on.
Now to make sure I get it as even as possible what I'm going to do is come straight down across and hook it down here. Then I'm going to do the same for the other ones. Now just repeat this whole process for the other set of chains.Now once you've got the other set installed it's a good idea to drive forward a bit and stop and get out and make any adjustments if you need to.Now inaudible 00:02:09 that's going to do it for our test fit. The Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains are our 2018 Nissan Pathfinder.
