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 heavy-duty, square-link tire chains provide excellent traction in snow and ice. The diamond-pattern design offers great tire coverage. Made of a durable, corrosion-resistant manganese nickel alloy with built-in tensioners to ease installation.I used this product the day after they arrive promptly from etrailer. These chains were easy to install, even when my 2017 Promaster 1500 was already stuck in the mud with a 3/4 ton load in the cargo bay. Following the installation, I was able to gain traction immediately and continue down the saturated, unpaved road grade to the job site without further incident. I've driven only 4WD trucks for years to avoid such incidents and was happy to gain some off- road confidence in a 2WD van with the help of these chains. Looking forward to trying them out in the snow.
These chains are great! The major benefit of these is that you can install them without moving the car. This can be a lifesaver if you are stuck in the snow and can't move the car to roll over traditional chains. I love these chains so much. I'm such a fan of these chains that I actually bought a second set as a backup/spare.
The chains fit my 225/75-R16 light truck tires perfectly and clear the wheel well (1995 motor home on Ford E350 chassis). They go on the outside of my dual rears. The gap between the tires is small, and it took some effort to feed the chain through at the bottom. Since I carry blocks for leveling anyway, I plan to drive the inner rears onto 2x6s to lift the outer tires off the ground, or at least make it easier to install and straighten out the chains. I have not had a chance to test-drive the chains yet.
I recently went winter camping and used my new chains. The chains added at least twice the traction to my mud and snow tires by themselves.
excellent!
Good service, good product, I am really beginning to like this company for their attention to detail.
Thanks, fast shopping and great product.
Work great and easy to put on.
Easy to put on. Especially the second t ime.
un open, have not had snow.
Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
Chains fit perfectly and installed in minutes. Rubber chain adjusters are a great accessory. Thanks to Kimberly in customer support for getting the right chains and recommending the adjusters. I'm very happy with the purchase and support from e-trailer and will be purchasing from them again.
Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
These tire chains work very well on my 2019 Ford F-250. They were very easy to install and remove, provide excellent traction in snow or on ice, and come in a nice carrying case. In addition to the built-in tensioner, I also added a rubber loop-type tension to keep them tight. The only problem I encountered was during the 2021 winter storm in Texas. I think I was the only person in the Austin area with tire chains, and while I was in a grocery store someone stole both chains from my front tires (luckily, they left them on the rear tires). The first picture is when I first installed the chains (before the ice and then snow) - the second picture is after several days of driving in the snow and ice (and after the front chains were stolen).
Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
After reviewing tech info and reviews I purchased Titan Alloy Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link part TC2533 for the 2018 Ram 2500. These are regular duty and a good fit. These chains offer a lot more clearance for the P-Brake cable. They are a cleaver design, have great carrying case and are fairly quick to install. I have not purchased winter tires for this vehicle so the Ram need chains to pull a travel trailer up and down our snow-covered road.
Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
Just completed fit-check of these chains on my two vehicles (2016 Toyota Tundra, P255/70R18, Michelin LTX MS2; 2010 Toyota Sequoia, P275/55R20 111S M+S, Bridgestone Dueler H/L) and all is good! Hardest part of installation was untangling the chains to lay out on the ground (that always is, for me!). Practice makes it easier. Thank you etrailer! Rolling a few revolutions and re-tightening chains IS important. Don't leave that step out. I'm going to add rubber tensioners (old-school, I know) just to be sure. Pics are of the 2010 Sequoia and 2016 Tundra.

"etrailer" is fast (no surpirse), we use them a lot. These chains ROCK. They go on SO EASY. The grip is KILLER, not just forward thrust, but the back end stays planted in corners (diamond pattern is why). My '96 F-250 throws serious snow and ice roost with these on. They come off just as easy: Unhook, swing the cable out of the way from behind the back of the tire, back up 3", fling them in the case. If you are really tired of floppy ladder chains and latches, trimming links and cable type chains (that just don't work)? GET THESE CHAINS. I've tested them in axle deep snow, thick ice, they didn't break, the truck flat hooks up and goes. These WORK- PERIOD!

Im am very very satisfied with purchasing these chains from etrailer. First their web page was easy to navigate. Second the price was great. Then they were delivered as promised and quick. Once they arrived the quality is great and they came in a very nice carry case. Then I actually put them on in less then 5 minutes each and they went on without moving the truck like it says. so easy I couldn't believe it. I drove several times up and down my driveway without any problems with traction, and it was very slippery without them. I don't plan to use them all the time I plan to use them when I plow my driveway next year but just wanted to get prepared for next year. I put them over all season tires so I saved from getting snow tires for plowing. Great Job Team etrailer !!!

I really like the ease of installation of this style of chain. The diamond pattern is a smoother ride. They have good grip on thick ice. The manufacturer even included repair links and gloves to use if i wanted to dye my hair. I received my order faster than expected and really liked etrailers detailed order tracking.

Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
These are the first chains I have bought for a car. Bought them in preparation for a trip to Canada this winter and to have just in case this winter around Kansas City. I was worried about how difficult chains would be to install on a Dodge Dart but these were super easy to install, 5 min per tire my first time putting them on. They fit tightly and I can’t wait to try them out in the snow. Customer service was also great with my order. They were delivered several days before they were suposed to and sent me a personal email letting me know they were shipped out early. This was a great touch considering most online orders involve no personal contact from the business. I Will definitely purchase from etrailer again because of the service.

I woke to an unusual 7- 12 in's. of wet heavy snow... Power out all over and needed to help friends get winter storm supplies, cooking stove propane, water, ice for coolers etc... After going over the Sierra's about a year previously with my son in a different vehicle and having to chain up, I got to see how relatively easy they went on and how they got us over the mountain. I live in the valley so this kind of purchase was something I thought would only come in handy in mountain travel something I usually wouldn't do. I decided to purchase a set of Titan Alloy Snow Tire Chains and adjusters just to be prepared as you never know what’s coming... I'm glad I made the purchase! Maneuvering around in the approx. 8 inches was simple and when I needed to go through deeper piles they got me there without a problem. Grown up in a snow country and having put on traditional chains these were so less complicated to install. Driving below or no more than the recommended speed made drive in a difficult situation easier.

Wow!! Installed in minutes and fit snug no chain flopping in fender well like other chains. These are half the weight than my other chains and Titans came with nice carry case as well. Thank you to Christina J for all your help and getting these to me just in time to hit the snow [thumbs up]
Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
I bought these snow chains for an up coming ski trip to Colorado during Christmas time. Etrailer was a great resource in trying to decide what type of snow chain to purchase, especially for a South Texan. The video demonstration and previous review is what sold me on the type/brand. I tested them to ensure they fit properly and had them installed in a jiffy. Let's hope I never have to use them!
Karl K - 08/21/2017Review from a similar Diamond Alloy in Tire Chains
I got the chains and tired them on tonight and they seem big. With the tension all the way tight there was still slop in the chain system. It definitely seems like they could tighten more. The instructions show a few inches of available tension when the chains are on plus I had to loop the bungee cord around another section of chain to get any tightness. It just does not seem like the proper fit and may cause issue when in use. Is there a smaller size or another tire chain that would better fit a 275/65R18 tire???
