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 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.
How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle
To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire, as shown below.

What's up everybody, Adam here with the etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains. This is definitely gonna be an upgrade to some of those ladder pattern style chains because of the install process. One, we don't have to grab a rubber tensioner separate it has one built in. Two, we don't have to make a connection in the back at the bottom of the wheel. When we're putting these on we have one connection up top.
So it's really easy. If you are one that only puts on chains whenever you're stuck, this is gonna be the easiest one to do it. So let's go over some features. These are gonna be some smaller links compared to some of the more aggressive ones. So if you do go with some of the more aggressive ones, you might get more traction, but it's gonna be a less smoother ride.
So these little cross chains right here, is what's gonna kinda help with that ride just because we're not really gonna be going from tire to chain to tire to chain. There's only a couple of different spots that we're actually gonna have full tire on the ground. So with those ladder pattern style chains you really get the choppy feel. Where these are gonna be a lot smoother because of the smaller links, and these are made of a manganese nickel alloy steel, so they are extra strong. And they're gonna last you for a decent amount of seasons.
When it comes to rim protection, we have a powder credit finish on all of the chains surrounding our wheel. So whether you have the factory wheels or some fancy wheels where you just wanna protect 'em, you don't have to worry about it scratching anything 'cause everything that may make contact with your wheels is gonna be made of a softer material. So it's gonna give and it's not gonna scratch your wheels. That's something I really look forward just because I just wanna get unstuck, I don't want to put my vehicle in jeopardy of any type of damage or anything like that. It does come in a pair of two.
So just grab as many as you need for your setup. The speed rating is 30 miles an hour so we don't wanna exceed that. I do like the case. So the thick canvas, it's really easy to store. I just throw it underneath the seat or in the storage compartment, or even just in a toolbox or something like that. With the ladder pattern style chains, or the cable style chains are really hard to get back in here. These are really easy 'cause you have a slot for one on one side, and a slot for the other on the other. So this is definitely an upgrade from one of those canvas bags. Those canvas bags really do rip like almost immediately. Sometimes we literally taking them out of the bag for the first time and they rip. So this is gonna be a really good case that's not really going to break or rip, and it's easier to store. All in all this is gonna be one of the better options when it comes to tire chains. If you wanna see how easy the installation process is, stick around we're gonna show you. First thing we wanna do is lay out the chains, just make sure they're not tangled up or twisted or anything like that. And then what we wanna do, we're gonna take one side, and we're gonna slide it behind our wheel, and we're only supposed to install these on the outer wheel of this truck. So you can find that information in your owner's manual to see which tire they want you to put it on. So once we get this all around, what we wanna do is take this, and we go behind the wheel, and make our connection just like that. And while we're here, grab all these chains, and drape 'em over. And once we get majority of it out there we wanna kind of tuck this back a little bit. You gonna have a series of links. I'm just gonna start with the outermost one right here. And these little cross chains, we want those to be in the middle of our tires. Just like that. And once that's done, then have a little tension there, 'cause it does get a little tangle back here, especially with the Dually wheels. And now we're gonna have this little red bracket, we're gonna take this little chain, and we're gonna put it through there, give it a good tug. It's gonna lock into place. We have two different round pieces here. The goal here is to put it through at least one of them, and then go directly across the wheel, from whichever one. So this one has decent amount of tension, but if you go through the other one, we're not gonna have enough chain to be able to go all the way over there. So we're gonna have to use the first one. You don't have to do both. Just whatever fits the best. And we wanna make sure that the hook is facing out. And now we wanna just get in the car, roll over them a couple of times, make sure that they're still nice and tight, and if so, we are good to go. And that'll do it for a look at the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chain..

Brightly color-coded chains have built-in tensioners to ensure fast, easy installation and a tight fit. Never worry about misplacing parts."THESE DO NOT FIT A 185/65R14 TIRE"!!!!! It says they do, but they do not. They seem like a mediocre set of small chains for emergency use, but not frequent use. The chain material seems too small and will wear through in no time. Would suggest not driving on any areas that aren't covered in ice or snow. If there are long patches of asphalt I would remove then promptly. I was dry fitting in the drive way to make sure they fit and after a hour of wrestling with them in every manner, the pull chain is just too short. The rubber bungie cord would not even go through the last red loop. Guess I'll try a different brand.
Great product for our 2007 Honda Fit Sport. They fit perfectly. Instructions are very clear and with a little practice we were both able to get these on in 5-10 minutes.
We have a cabin in Northern MN with a killer hill that is hard to navigate in winter. With the chains we were able to zip right up without any problems.

Still working great and showing no wear and tear. We used them 12+ times over the past year and they saved us many a time.
Amazing service! I called and talked to a real person who genuinely cared. The Tire Chain's worked out exactly as they demo'd in the video and are amazing quality. 5/5! Thanks so much for making a Ski- Vacation stress free! :)
Un-packed and tried on upon arrival. Liked the carrying case too. Exactly as advertised
They broke on first trip up the mountain, destroyed the wheel well and chipped the paint
Excellent service and product!
The packaging was well thought out, delivered on time and excellent customer service. Now all I have to do is wait for snow... Will update if unsatisfactory after use.
Wonderful Business to work with.
Great price, great communication about delivery time, arrived ahead of time. Seemed like such a good deal I grabbed a set of chains for my bro's car, too.
great product, great price, fast delive ry
No snow yet but the practice installation went great! So simple my 6 year-old helped make sure I was following the instructions properly. Time will tell if I need them and how they work in the upcoming North Idaho snow plowing season. Fit great on my 275/70R18 tires. I appreciate the carrying case they came with, also!
These chains were amazing! I was a bit hesitant to go with chains over cables due to the car's manual saying to use cables, but after talking to Bob at etrailer, and watching the install videos, I went with them (on all four tires) and am glad I did! We went up to Yosemite for the New Year, and it snowed the day we drove in. We got through the gate into the park without needing chains, but once inside, the roads started to get covered, and though we have AWD, we don't have snow tires and the chains seemed like the best option. We pulled over and had the chains on all four tires within about 20 minutes. The car ran like a tank through the snow (and later, ice-covered roads) and I'm really happy we went with the chains rather than cables. After putting on the chains, we drove about 100 yards to check and tighten them. They were actually pretty tight - only had to tighten one. They really really came in handy driving through the Yosemite Valley, and the email responses I got from Bob prior to buying these showed me great customer service. The shipping speed was top notch as well, and overall, I'm happy that we went with etrailer to get these chains for our snow-covered trip to Yosemite.
These chains are Awesome in every way! I live at 7500' on a mesa in W.new mexico, winter is get to town in the morning early while the roads are still frozen. . . otherwise its mud\snow\rock\ice, in a steady uphill climb. . . These chains go on so fast, (like 5min for a set). I use them on a 2001 AWD\4WD Expedition... FRONT end only and while I get some rear end sliding, the fronts just never break loose at all
They seem like good chains, but they don't seem to fit my 2021 Toyota Sienna AWD tires like it said they should (235/65/17). The tensioner chain is too short for me to pull tension on adjacent yellow chains and I am worried this will negatively impact the chains stability on my tires. I can barely get the rubber tensioner through the first red ring after pulling and readjusting several times. This is my first time using snow tire chains... Would someone with experience be able to let me know if this is OK or if I should buy some different chains?
I always order snow chains from etrailer.com. It's easy to find what size you need and they always get delivered earlier than expected! Great company.
Waited a year to write this review. These chains are amazing!!!! I have a 2WD truck and love my winter sports (I know I know). Anyways, just got back from a week in Mammoth Lakes CA, Mammoth is currently experiencing some of the most snow for the season that they've had for awhile. These chains stayed on my truck for all 5 days there. Through powder, packed snow, ice, etc. These chains DELIVERED!!!!!!!! I am so happy with them that my friends who have 4wd that were on the trip asked about them and are ordering the same ones for their trucks as well! I couldn't be more happy with the purchase.
Excellent service and a very good product. I had a slight issue and they handled it right away. The product itself is like a knobby ice and snow grabber, it works well. I have a 2wd and am considering a second pair for the front tires. Installation is straightforward. I always advise practicing the install multiple times at home because it’s a lot more difficult in sub 20f temps ;).
I highly recommend the product, etrailer, and winter tires
Ps buy a few backup rubber tighteners just in case!
Chain tire set was received several days before the date indicated in the order. My tire size 275/65-20 was not listed on the label of the TC2335 chain set received, even though it was indicated to be good for my tire size by Etrailer. I test fitted the chains in accordance with the etrailer video and it fit just fine as you can see in the attached photo. These chains should do well for our National Park trip in a few months.
Only used them a couple of times in my 3/4 ton pickup. Once with an empty bed and once with a 1400lb camper in the bed. They did not break, so that's good. For frequent use, I'd go with a heavier chain.
Fiddly to get on, but all chains I've ever used have been.
I like the carry case--it's just the right size to be easy to stow the chains and no bigger. Quality construction.
I have ordered many products from etrailer over the years. Customer service and technical assistance are always excellent, products are delivered promptly and as promised, and prices are fair. This time I ordered a set of tire chains for a Ram 3500 dually. Being from Texas I have zero experience with snow chains, but etrailer personnel made the selection and purchasing process easy. Montana here I come.
I have no previous experience with vehicle tire chains. I ordered and received these Titan chains from etrailer in a very timely manner. The only reason for my 4 of 5 stars is that I have yet to use them. I took pictures after installing on a rear tire of my 2006 GMC Sierra 1500. LT 265/70-17. These Titan chains seem to fit very well. Etrailer's installation video helped make my 1st attempt easy and successful. Thank you etrailer!
Great service, tracking, and follow up. Chains showed up a day early too. I ordered the Diamond chains for 265/70R17 KO'2 tires. Fit good, easy to install. Note in image that I put my tires up on blocks to install. This works quite nicely, especially with the edge lugs on the tires to get things lined up and properly fit. Much easier, cleaner, and warmer to fit chains in the garage or driveway before crawling around on ice, snow, and slush with cold hands etc...

These chains will fit a variety of tire sizes. I reached out to the manufacturer who advised that not all fitments will use both rings and with the larger tires it is possible that you may only get the pull chain to go though one ring or even none of the rings. It will still be a good fit as long as you can attach the rubber bungie to a point on the chains that keeps it locked into the notch on the slider.
