Get excellent traction in extreme conditions. Grooved links and ladder pattern provides traction for your vehicle in snow, ice, and mud. Reversible design allows for wear on either side for longer-lasting chains. Cams allow easy tensioning.


Features:

  • Provides excellent traction for your vehicle in snow, ice, and mud
    • Square links are grooved to dig in better than traditional square links
    • Ladder pattern gives you traction as you drive forward

    • Rubber adjusters (sold separately) are recommended for a tight fit
  • Resists corrosion thanks to nickel manganese alloy steel construction

  • Made in the USA


Specs:

  • Fits: 15" - 22" tires (for exact sizes, see below)
  • Quantity: 2 chains
  • 90-Day warranty


Note: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if they might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.


These pewag ladder-patterned chains are great winter weather chains for your SUV, truck, or 4WD vehicle. Not only do the grooved square links dig into deep snow and ice better than rounded or standard square links, but the reversible design of these chains also allows them to wear under standard use much longer than other chains. And if you're partial to American-made products, you'll be happy to know that these are made in Colorado.


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.


Installing Snow Chains

Installing these chains is simple.


Lay chains on the ground to get all the tangles out

1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks.


Drape chains over tire.

2. Drape the chain over your tires, making sure that the prongs attaching the cross chains to the side chains face away from your sidewalls. Drive forward about half a tire rotation.


Connect the chain behind the tire

3. On the back of the tire, pull the chain tight and hook the ends together. Repeat this on the front of the tire.


Twist cams

4. Insert the included tool into the cam and twist to tighten the sidewall chain. Twist as many cams as it takes to get a tight fit.


Attach optional tensioners

5. Drive forward 2-3 vehicle lengths and recheck the chain tension. Tighten any loose cams. If needed, rubber adjusters (sold separately) can help you get a tight fit. Make sure the hooks on the adjusters face away from your tire so your wheels don't get scratched.


Quick Tips:

  • Lengthen the life of snow chains by drying them after each use before you store them.
  • Check out our installation kit with safety lights and a kneeling pad (PO34FRK) to make things a little easier when you're installing chains out in the snow.

How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle

To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire.


Tire size on sidewall

185/60-15

  1. (185) - indicates tire width in millimeters
  2. (60) - gives you the aspect ratio (sidewall height as percentage of width)
  3. (15) - denotes the diameter of the wheel rim in inches

  • Glacier Emergency V-Bar Snow Tire Chains for a 2018 Ford Expedition with 285/45-22 Tires
    The Glacier Emergency Twist-Link Snow Tire Chains for Light Trucks - Web-Strap Fastener - 1 Pair Item # PW6087 are designed to fit all rims that are 15 to 18 inches so they will not fit your 22 inch rims. Considering the tire and wheel size on your 2018 Ford Expedition I would go with the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners - Square Link - Reversible # PWE2226SC. These are extremely strong and will offer the best traction. If you are concerned about clearance in your...

  • Tire Chain Recommendations for 295/65R20 and 35x12.50x17 Tires on a 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500
    I definitely have some chains that fit the tires you mentioned for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500, but since your tire sizes are very different you're going to need different sets of chains for the different tire sizes. Here is what I recommend for each tire size you mentioned: 295/65R20 - # PWE2226SC (also use Tensioners # PW103) 35x12.50x17 - # TC2337 The chains for the 20" rims are standard ladder-style chains which is why I recommend using the tensioners to give you a nice, snug...

    The correct Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners - Square Link - Reversible for 305/70-16 tires is part # PWE2226SC. These are a great heavy duty chain option with cams for easy tensioning and reversible design for the best life. They will work excellent in both deep snow and ice to provide traction when needed. Please note, these chains are specifically designed for wide tires like a 305.

  • Recommended Tire Chains that Fit 275/65/20 Tires and 295/65/20 Tires
    There isn't one set that will fit both your 275/65/20 tires and 295/65/20 tires so I have recommended two sets below: For your 2015 Ford F-350 with 275/65/20 tires, I recommend the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains for Wide Base Tires item # TC3831. These chains have v-bar links which will give superior traction in deep snow and ice. The V-bars are really what make this set stand out. They have small studs that will dig into the ice for the best traction. They are designed for both on road...

  • Snow Chain Recommendation for Tire Size 295/65R20
    We have great tire chain solutions that fit your 295/65R20 but actually both chains you mentioned do not fit so you would need to go a different route. The most similar option would be the pewag Tire chains part # PWE2226SC which are priced about the same and actually would be a longer lasting option based on it being made from a harder metal and also being reversible.

  • Recommended Tire Chains for 315/70R17 Tires on 2000 Ford F-250
    Your 2000 Ford F-250 Owners manual specifies to us class S chains on your tires. For your truck, you don't have the factory wheel size, so for your 315/70R17 tires if you aren't concerned about clearance, then the best option is the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners - Square Link - Reversible - 1 Pair # PWE2226SC. These chains are made of manganese nickel alloy for extreme durability and are reversible so you can ensure they wear evenly. They have the integrated cam...
