Installation
1. Spread the chain around the back of the tire.
2. Connect the yellow and blue cable at the back of the tire.
3. Push the cable into place behind the tire and center the cross chains on the tire's tread. Then, on the front side of the tire, join the 2 ends of the yellow side chain using the green hook.
4. Feed the silver draw chain with the rubber tensioner through the red channel at the bottom and pull it tight. Then run the tensioner through the red rings. (Note: Depending on your tire size, you might not be able to thread through both rings.) Pull the tensioner across the tire and fasten it to the yellow chain on the opposite side.
5. Pull your vehicle forward and retighten the chain.

These square-link, diamond-pattern tire chains provide excellent traction in snow and ice for vehicles with limited wheel well clearance. Made of a durable and corrosion-resistant manganese nickel alloy with built-in tensioners to ease installation.I have to say, I’m blown away with these Titan Snow Chains! Planned a trip to Colorado and Montana in a week and wanted to be prepared. Just so happen, we got 11” of snow here in Kansas City Missouri before I left and just had to try them out! Our road is a dirt road not maintained by the state or county so was a little worried I would not be able to get out. I put these on and it went through the snow, ice and slush like I had a 4x4!!! Perfect! (Note: before putting these on I tried to get out of just my driveway and it was a no go!!) Oh, these were installed on my 2018 Dodge Grand Caravan non-AWD with brand new All Season tires. The chains also fit perfectly and had little to no issues installing. First one took about 10 minutes, I have never put chains on before and second one took two minutes tops! Would definitely recommend both etrailer and this product! 5 Stars!
I ordered these on Monday and they arrived Wednesday. The chains have individual pouches inside the storage case so they were not tangled at all. They laid out quickly. My car is a caprice wagon with partial skirts, so I was concerned about installation. It definitely was harder than what is shown in the vids, but really not bad considering. Looks like I'll have enough clearance that they will not hit the skirts. I should now be ready for the mountain passes on my upcoming trip.
Chains go on just like the video shows . It took me 15 minutes the first time in the snow at 4:45 in the afternoon as it was getting dark. I left them on for 4 days while hunting and went places with the front wheel drive minivan that my 4 wheel drive Dodge wouldn't have made it up or down without chains. I put 30 miles on these chains on snow/ice and 5 miles on bare sanded/cindered pavement and there are no visible signs of wearing of the metal except for some light surface rust after taking them off and drying. It cannot hurt to rinse them in water, dry them and spray them with a light oil like WD-40 and then ziplock bag them before putting them in their carry case. My van is a 2017 and I was looking at snow tires. 2 tires with wheels and sensors was in excess of $500 online . $75 for a set of chains to use instead of snow tires a couple times a year is A OK with me.
Tentman - 12/25/2018After checking your website again, was disappointed to find you have lowered the price (about $3) in the last few days from the price I paid. Delivered as scheduled. Have tried them on - When looping thru red rings to tighten, essentially no room to stretch across wheel, so barely hook second link after second ring. skipping second ring makes no difference. 10 minutes to install first one. Second one only took 5-6 minutes. Both times are plus vehicle movement to tighten as instructed. Have bought them as 'insurance' for ski trip to Colorado and hope they stay in carrying case! Not sure why your website says they don't fit 2017 Subaru Outback, as mine has 225/65R17 tires and website shows it fits that tire size. Title sheet on case does not include that tire size. I had found another website where a Subaru expert recommended this TC1555 as one of the few chain fitting my car due to the very limited space between car and tire. Have added pliers, gloves, zip ties, knee pad and plastic bags (so I don't get wet kneeling in snow) to carrying case.
Laura E - 12/19/2017 Mark H - 12/19/2018Super fast shipping. Have not used the chains on my outback yet on the road but did put them on in the garage. Tolerance is close (pay attention to where the chains sit on the tire) but looks like it’ll work. Better to have than not IMO...excellent contact with etrailer.
I placed an order but I didn't notice that I was off one digit on the delivery address(mother in law's house). The order shipped the same day! The etrailer staff was great about trying to correct my mistake with UPS. The package arrived earlier than estimated and I couldn't be happier! The tire chains are what I expected and I hope to never need them!
Ken S - 01/29/2017Excellent product from a seller who truely delivered. I bought chains so I can honestly say If you need chains this is the place to get them. I have no doubt their other products will be just as satisfactory so I will first come to this site and check thm out.

These were working well for a snowy trip across the Oregon Cascades but I found the built-in tensioners started wearing out by the time I needed to cross back over the following week. Unfortunately, one of the tensioners snapped as I was putting chains on and I had a stressful time figuring out how to rig a solution that would get me over the pass without popping the chains. I will not buy these chains again because I would rather have a set without the built-in tensioners (since they are difficult to overcome if they break). I am going to buy a different replacement set that allows me to provide tension simply by running bungee cords from one side of the wheel to the other. That seems like a much better option that trying to jerryrig a built-in tensioner that has now proven that it fails. I'm just glad we got home safe.
These chains are a decent quality item ESP only if needed on a few times in the winter Easily to lnstall and using the adjusters/tensioners helps Again for intermittent use highly recommend If you need them more regularly go with the Thule C12 models higher quality I have had each for the use on our Subaru foresters in severe weather Remember use on 4 tires only with the AWD Subaru Staff have been very helpful Recommend E trailer and staff & products Mark v / VA
I never leave reviews!!!! I am far too lazy. However, these tire chains saved my life. I have a cabin 13 miles down a logging road in the North Maine Woods. I drove my Subaru Outback in only to have a foot of snow fall the first night in. When my 11 year old and I drove out there was nothing but fresh snow on the logging road. We got stuck real bad, until we put the chains on. After that, it was like the finger of God pushing us forward. We drove out like we owned the road. These are the best chains, and very easy to put on. By the way they come very fast in the mail!!!!
I bought these chains because I didn't want to spend the 800 dollars on studded snow tires for my minivan. We live on the coast of Maine and it's rare we would need them. The chains came really quickly. I watched the video a few times then put them on the night before a snow storm. They were fairly easy to get on. The worked like a charm! No issues getting out of our 3 foot snow covered hilly drive! They made storm driving safe and fun! I had to adjust them a few times, as the rubber tightener made a lot of noise if they were not tight enough. This took a few tries. I also was hoping to keep them on for the month (Maine this year is getting hammered with snow storms), but on the highway going over 50 wasn't a great idea- they got loud- I think they slipped. For me these are perfect for getting around. So glad I have them as we are getting hit with another blizzard Sunday and have to get to a State swim meet an hour away Monday morning! So thank you etrailer! Great value!!
These chains are perfect! After repeated melt-during-the-days followed by freeze-up-at-nights, my 1/2 mile driveway was an uphill skating rink. Tried 10-20 runs at it... no way. Retreated inside to research chains on the internet. After considering several options, chose these and am VERY pleased. They go on and come off just like the video... very straightforward. Only challenge was "make sure the open side of the cross chain hooks are facing down". I haven't used chains before, so had to study them for a while, but finally figured out what this was referring to. After that, it was very simple... didn't even get myself dirty (OK... I was wearing black winter gloves). Important to practice on AND off in the nice warm garage... but one time was enough to get it (having watched the video). Drove up my steep driveway like it was gravel instead of glare ice. Brought a rubber mat to kneel on and removed them without any problems before entering the (cleared) highway. Now I have the comfort of knowing I'll never be stranded again. FYI: I am a 68 year old female who lives alone... certainly not feeble, but not a body-builder either. (My vehicle has front wheel drive.) AND... the customer service was fantastic. Rennie helped me decide that I would be strong enough to fasten the bungie-type hook... and she was right. (Worked best when I positioned myself behind the hook and pushed it forward.) I ordered the chains at noon and they were shipped that very day. Ordered on Friday and they were here (3 states away) on Monday! Yeah!!! And I love the functional (and attractive) carrying case... separate pocket for each chain so they don't get tangled. Great product! Great service! I am one happy camper!!!
I ordered these chains for my Shockwave toy hauler for a hunting trip to Colorado 5 days for departure. I was worried about them arriving on time. etrailer sent me an email saying they were able to ship the chains earlier than expected. Two days later they were at my door step. Though I did not have to use them the fitment was great and they were easy to install (sorry no pics). I would recommend doing business with etrailer to anyone.
Great timing in fact. We had the chance to finally use them this winter. The first day we used them, worked great! Relatively easy to put on, gave great traction. Loud, but expected. However the 2nd day we used them, one of them broke - the wire cable that goes on the inside of the wheel snapped clean in two. This happened while we were descending from going over a pass, travelling at about 25 mph. We were fortunately able to locate some cheap cable chains at a [retailer] on the other side of the pass, but are upset these failed us after only 2 days of use.
I haven't had to use them yet but they fit well on my tires. They were very easy to install and I especially like that you don't have to roll over them to get them on.
Took a little longer for delivery than expexted. It was winter time, the chains were back ordered so I understand why they yook longer than expected so order them early. Not planing to use chains anytime soon because I live in southern California and I got them for potential future use. I examined the chains when they arrived and seemed fairley straight forward and should be user friendly. As forTori, the E Trailer represenative that handled my order, she was friendly and got back to me in good time with an answer to my one question that I had. I would use E Trailer.com again.
Great product! Came recommended from my brother that has had 100 percent great experiences with etrailer, and these tire chains perform great off road in mud and snow! My personal experience with etrailer has been great also. 5 star service and products!
Got these shipped days before a ski trip and they arrived hours before I left - great timing! Chains were easy to put on and of solid quality. They come in a soft felt-material like bag. Not as nice or as easy to put on as Thule/Konig tire chains but I would still recommend to others.
Bought this product due to tread design, ease of installation, and what would fit my van on the recommendation of the experts at etrailer. Product arrived earlier than they estimated; cudos to them. Nice packaging and storage (hard sided case) and not some plastic bag like others I looked at. Web site is easy to use and detailed.
Purchased the Titan Chains (TC1555) for a 2011 Sienna XLE FWD for peace of mind insurance. Live in the Denver area and wanted to have a set for trips the mountains. eTrailer was great. They upgraded my shipping and arrived well ahead of time. I have to drive to Vegas in February with the wife and 3 little kids. Just fit tested the chains and they go on and off easily (in a dry warm garage anyway). The chains are a nice quality for the money. they come in a nice zippered storage case and include a few spare repair links etc. Overall great a product (that I hope to never use)
I bought these chains for our Sienna Van when we went out to Colorado last year for Christmas. I chained up going over the Sierras and then again in Wyoming. These are great chains and were easy to install and take off. Thank you so much. I am so glad I purchased them. I can't believe it has been a year already. Merry Christmas!
Mark J - 12/14/2017Have yet to try my chains out, but I must say I am honestly impressed with the service this company has provided, starting with the web site and thru the product delivery. Comprehensive information and follow-up. I read the reviews, and was a touch skeptical about how everyone raved, but the proof was in the pudding: it's been a great experience thus far. Definitely going to come back for the hitch purchase!! Txs. Tom
Thanks for the quick shipping. Installed one for drill this am. No issues installing. Only thing that I observed was the little rubber bungee to tighten them was way short and could not stretch across the tire as shown in instructions. That may be because of the tire size. Hope I never have to take them out of the bag again. 2016 KIA Sedona 235/65R17 tires
I just received my order 11 days in Germany, which is AWESOME!!! Mail takes a while to get here. Thank you, and I will give a followup review when I have a chance to tryout the tire chains. Thank you etrailer.com for excellent service.
I received the Titan snow tire chains on time as requested. I have not had an opportunity to see if they fit yet but expect to try soon. Thank you for the expert service and will follow up with a review when I do try them on.
