Take Some of the Weight Out of Chaining Up

Fitting chains around wide-base truck tires takes effort, especially when you're working beside the road in winter weather. This pair weighs 67.5 lbs, compared with 74 lbs for the matching standard-weight Titan chains. That's 6.5 lbs less to lift and position, nearly 9% lighter overall. The lighter alloy side chains and hooks are as durable as, or more durable than, their standard-weight counterparts. Plus, these chains cost less, giving you a more affordable option for winter road travel.

Keep the Familiar Grip of Twist-Link Chains

When deep snow covers your route, the ladder-pattern cross chains give your tires something to push against as you start and stop. The road-contacting twist links retain the same construction as the standard-weight version, providing traction in deep snow and some grip on ice. Their rounded shape also gives you a smoother ride than square-link chains. These wide-base chains are intended for snow-covered roads, making them a practical option for winter highway travel.

Pull the Chains Snug With Cam Tighteners

Once you've draped the chains over your tires and connected the inside and outside fasteners, turn the built-in cams to draw the side chains snug. The cams take up slack and help secure the chains around your tires. Secure any unused chain ends, then stop after a short drive to check the tension and tighten again if needed. Practice installing them at home before your first winter trip, so you're familiar with the process when it's time to chain up.
