Features to know about

Tackling Icy Grades and Remote Routes: Studded 7 mm Links Bite Hard

When the terrain turns slick, these pewag 7 mm LT Studded Truck Chains keep heavy trucks moving where others spin out. The welded studs and twist-link design dig into ice and packed snow for maximum grip on demanding surfaces. They’re built for aggressive off-road traction, perfect for routes that see deep winter buildup or uneven frozen ground.

Built to Survive Rough Work: Premium Alloy Steel for Long Wear

Each link is forged from pewag’s premium alloy steel, known for its extended wear life and strength. That means fewer worries about stretching or breaking when you’re hauling through deep drifts or icy ruts. The hardened material handles constant stress from heavy trucks and biting studs, giving you durability season after season.

Confidence in the Harshest Winter Jobs: Engineered for Forestry and Ice Road Trucking

The KST model isn’t a light-duty setup—it’s made for the most aggressive off-road applications such as forestry tracks and frozen haul routes. When consistent traction and reliability are critical, this chain delivers. Its ladder-style layout provides solid forward pull and dependable braking on snow-packed grades.

Serious Off-Road Traction Without Compromise: Designed for Heavy Truck Use

These chains are sold as one pair and built strictly for off-road use. The combination of 7 mm hardness, studded edges, and twist links means they’re purpose-built for heavy truck performance where traction matters most. When conditions demand the toughest setup, these are made to match.

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.

These are very heavy chains that are going to grip! Very happy with them and the service of etrailer.com has been top notch as well. They shipped fast and arrived in good order.

Good set of chains

These tire chains are great! I work in construction and we had a semi with trusses get stuck on the ice. I installed these chains on all 4 tires and was able to pull the semi up the icy incline.

  • Studded Snow Tire Chains That Fit 35 x 12.50 x 18 Tires
    I checked with the manufacturer, and while we do have studded snow tire chains that fit your 35 x 12.50 x 18 tires, the # PWKST2228 does not fit that size tire. Instead, I recommend a similar option from Titan: - Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains w/ Cams for Wide Base Tires - Ladder Pattern - V-Bar Link # TC3831CAM The # TC3831CAM will fit your 35 x 12.50 x 18 tires, and are similar to the chains you asked about. They have V-bar studs for breaking through difficult snow and ice, and have a...

  • Mounting A Winch On A 2008 Izuzu I-290 Or Using Something To Keep Me From Getting Stuck
    Let me start by saying that I may have a solution that will work for you. While I do recognize the 2008 Izuzu I-290 and the 2008 Chevy Colorado are the same truck, there are just enough differences between the two that the front hitch receiver that fits the 2008 Chevy Colorado does not fit your 2008 Izuzu I-290 truck. It appears that you may be using your truck for off-roading. If that is the case, you can use tire chains, if your vehicle has a tire size other than P225/75R15, P265/75R15,...
