Installation
1. Drape the chain over the tire and drive forward 1/2 of a tire revolution. (You can also lay the chain out and then drive onto it.)
2. Reach around to the back of the tire and fasten the rear side cable by running the end with the metal stops through the eye of the hook on the opposite end.
3. Run any excess side cable through the metal clip.
4. Repeat this process on the front side of the tire.
5. Drive forward 1 car length, then check the chain and hand tighten it again if needed.
You can use rubber or chain adjusters (sold separately) to increase the tension on the chains for a tighter fit.

Average Customer Rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars (340 Customer Reviews)
The low-carbon steel rollers on these ladder-pattern cable chains provide good traction in light snow. The low profile ensures a smooth ride for vehicles with limited wheel well clearance.I tried to fit it in on the driveway before going out to snow country.
It fitted good and much cheaper than buying it from [online].
Needed the cable instead of chains since the tire figment is tight against the wheel well.
I just ordered a second set of these like I should have from the start. I was using one set of chains on my FWD car. Getting a second pair so I will have chains on all of my tires. These chains fit and performed perfectly.
I purchased a set of tire snow chains for a 2014 Hyundai Sante Fe Sport AWD. The price was reasonable and I received them in a reasonable time period. The quality of the chains were great, and they came with their own carry case.
I did add additional / optional rubber support tensioning straps.
These items will stay with this vehicle for as long as I own it.
Thank you, Rich Rossi
Package arrived yesterday. All components included in a convenient storage bag. Have not yet had an opportunity to use the product.
My order came very fast, and after receiving my order, I did a test run. I have a 2020 Toyota RAV4, the chain cable fitted perfectly.
Ordered this set of tire chains (Titan TC2019) from etrailer because I have previously had good dealings with the company, and have seen them sell good quality products. Also, I was able to determine precisely, from their website, the kind of chains that would be best, and that would fit my tires (not always easy on other websites). These tires are on a 2019 RAV4 with 225-60-18 tires (a bit unusual size).
Fitment: The cross-chains are just right for 225 and slightly wider tires. However, the edge cables (around the tire circumference) are right at being too long, but tighteners should take up the slack that develops (and extra length makes them easier to install). Higher profile 225-70-18 winter tread tires would fit perfectly, I think.
Quality: The chains themselves appear to be sturdily constructed--cable "chains," for light weight use on SUVs (not for heavily loaded pickups or trailer towing). The cross-link connectors are well-designed, and appear to be heavy enough. The chain installation fasteners are good--work easily and look to be quite secure.
Usage: They are cables, not chains; very adequate for light snow, or plowed and sanded surfaces, and, being cables, they are easily stowed. As cables, although they'll work in deep snow, yet true chains will work much better. These will be adequate on hard ice (drive carefully!), but there are better choices for ice. But as cables, they don't require much clearance room to function--plenty of room on the RAV4. They attach firmly, and appear to be easy to install with freezing fingers (if that can be said of any tire chain!). They have the right sort of pieces and layers over the cross-tie cables to provide traction, long life and stay secure. I'll see how they work when I hit the snow--to see if they hold up as well as previous similar traction devices I have used.
Down side: The bag they come in has *flimsy* zippers. Compress the cables well before you try to close the bag on them! I had to cross bungee them to get them into the bag, and then again after they were in the bag. (Why did they fit in the bag so well when they were packed in China???)
Summary: I have only fitted them on the tire to verify correct choice. I have used this kind of "chains" (cables) in the past and found them to be perfectly adequate for traction and long life. These look like a good purchase for my use.
Easy to install and comes in a nice storage bag. Not bulky like other chains I have used in the past. Etrailer is the best to order through. The process is easy and items always ship fast.
I bought these chains for my 5th wheel trailer due to the fact I will be traveling through some mountains during the winter time and wanted to be prepared. I received the chains and put them on to test fit and they fit well and go on easily. The other nice part is that they hug the tire fairly well so that it shouldn't grab any fender well or trim pieces.
Hello, yes I love the tire chains. Didn't get any snow last year. I used them for the first time this year. They worked great. Thank you
I haven't had the opportunity to use them yet. But I did a test fit. They fit very nicely on my 225/75R16 tires. It snugged up nicely even without the rubber adjusters.
Getting new cables for an Audi Q5 - tight timeframe to head up to the snow - etrailer walked me through my options clearly, made a recommendation, and shipped the product to me expedited so I could make the trip. Cables arrived 3 days early! Great company, great experience.
I ordered these for a trip I was taking that had a high chance of snow on the roads. I haven’t had to use them yet but I did install them before I left to ensure they fit. The videos were a big help showing how to use them. They shipped and arrived just as stated on the site.
Appears great. Haven't used them yet.
Haven’t used them on my motorhome yet. Seem to be of a good quality. Only gave three stars because it’s hard to view something that you purchased just in case you might need it. In this case I hope I never come back to review them!
Have not used the chains yet (no snow) but they look good, and the shipping was very fast. Thanks for the great service.
Review from a similar Ladder Cable in Tire Chains
Order 2 pairs for my car, got 2 different cables, one set blue the other set green. You can tell instantly because the bags are blue and green and oddly the different colors weight different amounts. Emailed customer service to get cables that match and they said that the label invoice number are the same on both bags, So it's the same product. So if you don't care that you can get 2 different colors from ordering 2 sets in the same order you can try for these.

Fortunately haven't had to use these on a trip yet but I've tested them in the driveway and off road and they went on and off very straight forward and completely doable by yourself. I'm 5'5 and work a desk job but was able to get these on and off solo. (I do recommend putting a small tarp or canvas drop cloth in with your kit as it does require you to be down in the ground) I also chose to add the Titan Chain Multi-Arm Rubber Tire Chain Adjuster and though it's probably not necessary I did feel like it made the system extra secure and was a nice addition if your tire doesn't fit quite as perfect.

For a Ram 2021 4x4 with upgraded wheels and snow tires. 275 65 20 so got these just in case it gets really bad or required to have them. Don't anticipate ever using them though.

Review from a similar Ladder Cable in Tire Chains
Just received my chains yesterday. I have to say, first of, customer service is EXCELLENT! I had questions on which chains were best for my SUV and I was promptly responded with suggestions and links to videos. I went with these tire cables for my 2015 Dodge Durango SXT Plus. There was question about clearance issues with brake lines on the Durango and these seem to be very low profile and made for lower clearance. The price was right too. I did a dry install today and it was a breeze. Took way longer to fold these back up and put back into the storage bag! Lol! (That's not these chains fault, it's user error...) I took some pictures but note it was my first time installing tire cables so I'm going to have to center them a bit more. I purchased the Titan chain multi arm rubber chain adjusters and they did make a difference on how snug the cables fit, so I would recommend them. We only plan on using them on very rare occasions when we venture up the mountain, so in sure if you live where it snows all the time, you will probably look at higher prices chains, but I think these are perfect for the occasional use. I will update after our Big Bear trip if we use them to reflect actual use. Thank you etrailer, they also upgraded my shipping to get here a couple days earlier just because... that was amazing!

Very well organized web site and good prices and smooth ordering online.
The instructional videos are very good.
Very good customer service. I had to call as a result of a delay in deliver entirely on the part of the postal service. The person I spoke with was very courteous and helpful.
I would not hesitate to order from etrailer again!
