Features to know about

Climbing Steep, Snow-Covered Roads with Confidence: Grooved Square Links Bite In Deep

When the road turns icy or snow piles up on steep grades, these grooved square links really dig in. The grooves cut through packed snow and ice better than traditional square links, giving you that extra forward and braking traction when you need it most. The full net pattern adds even more grip, keeping you stable and moving whether the surface is slick pavement, deep snow, or frozen gravel.

Working Through Harsh Winter Conditions: Titanium Alloy Steel Delivers Lasting Strength

Winter jobs are rough on gear, so these chains are built from a titanium alloy steel known for corrosion resistance and long wear. The TITAN Grip steel construction holds up to repeated use in snow, ice, and mud without bending or breaking. You can count on that strength when you’re working through freezing slush or pushing through soft soil on the way out of a snowed-in site.

Keeping You Moving Smoothly on Ice and Mud: Net Pattern Maximizes Traction

The unique net pattern spreads the chain evenly over your tire for full coverage. That layout gives you steady traction in every direction—forward, sideways, and when braking—so you stay under control on slippery or uneven ground. It’s a big advantage when you need a smooth, predictable ride through ice patches or deep, wet snow.

Getting Back on the Road Fast: Assisted Tensioning Simplifies Tightening

When you’re dealing with bad weather, every minute matters. These chains tighten up quickly thanks to the built-in assisted tensioning design. Just pull the side chain until it’s snug and secure it with the spring clip—no separate tools or loose parts to fuss with. The result is a tight, even fit that stays in place while you focus on getting where you need to go.

Ready for Heavy Work in All Conditions: Designed for Tough, Off-Road Traction

Whether you’re hauling, towing, or just trying to keep control in deep snow, these chains are made for serious traction. They’re tough enough for heavy trucks, buses, or emergency vehicles and perform just as well when the road disappears under mud, ice, or soft soil. When winter weather hits hard, this setup keeps you working instead of waiting for a thaw.

Confirming Your Fit

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.

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.

haven't put theses on the Chevy yet. They look like a tuff chain that can take some abuse.

Best Made ChainsI have a set for the front and rear wheels on my F350 with Detroit lockers and 19.5 commercial truck tires. I have used the chains both on and off road, in mud and snow. They have been, so far, indestructible. They are heavy as hell, but go on remarkably easy and tension is adjusted easier than any other chain I have used. They look AWESOME and the only downside is all the stares and questions you will get about where to buy them!

  • Pewag ASV Snow Tire Chains for 215/85-16 Tires on 2006 Chevy C-Series Truck
    I see that you've been looking at the Pewag ASV square link tire chains, good choice! For a 215/85-16 tire, you'd want to use part # PWASV79 which is compatible with 15-18 inch wheels. These chains are constructed of titanium/steel alloy for plenty of strength on or off road. The square chain links provide superior bite on snowy or icy surfaces. The asymmetrical chain pattern provides great lateral traction and a very smooth ride. If you wanted something less expensive, the Pewag # PWE3231SC...
