Features to know about

Powering Through Heavy Snow and Ice: Grooved Square Links Bite Deep

These pewag wide base tire chains are built to grip when traction disappears. The grooved square links cut into snow, ice, and even mud better than smooth or rounded links, while the ladder pattern keeps you moving forward on steep or slick grades. It’s the combination that gives plow drivers, rural property owners, and mountain travelers the pull they need when conditions get rough.

Stay Moving Longer: Reversible Design Extends Chain Life

Instead of wearing out one side and tossing the set, these chains can simply be flipped. The reversible design lets you use both sides of each link, so you get double the service life from the same heavy-duty steel. After every run, just dry them off before storing and you’ll have reliable traction season after season.

Spend Less Time Cranking on Cold Metal: Cams Make Tensioning Easy

Getting tire chains tight in freezing weather is never fun, but the built-in cams on these make it quick and clean. Insert the included tool, twist, and the chains pull snug around your tire. You can add rubber adjusters (sold separately) if you want extra security. It’s a simple system that locks in tension without the guesswork.

Lay Pewag wide base tire chains flat on the ground to untangle links before installation

Drape Pewag snow chains evenly over tire with prongs facing away from sidewalls

Connect Pewag tire chain ends behind the tire by pulling tight and hooking together

Use cam tool to twist and tighten Pewag tire chains for a secure fit around the tire

Recheck Pewag tire chain tension and use rubber adjusters for a snug secure fit

Built to Handle Harsh Conditions: Nickel Manganese Alloy Steel Construction

These aren’t your basic carbon steel chains. pewag uses nickel manganese alloy steel, case-hardened for serious strength and rust resistance. The tough outer layer fights off wear and corrosion, while the inner core stays flexible under load. Whether it’s daily plowing or emergency snow runs, they’re built to take abuse and keep performing.

Ready for Bigger Rubber: Designed for 15"–22" Wide Base Tires

With their heavy build and wide-base fitment, these chains are made for super-single and wide-rim tires. Each set includes two chains and a cam tightening tool, giving you the traction setup you need for serious snow work or winter travel.

Note

  • 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.

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.

Shipping was extremely fast , received my order in 2 days . Chains are high quality and should last a long time. Bought these for all 4 tires of my ‘01 Ford F-350 , tires are BFG All Terrains Lt285-75-R16. They fit perfectly, will probably be cutting 2 links off of the backside where the two ends hook together. The chains came.2 per sack with a cam tightening tool in each sack. I modified the tool to make it easier to use when your hands are frozen.

2nd set of the Pewag tire chains I purchased here in the last four years. Loved the first set, still use them here in Wisconsin and Montana. Needed to purchase another set to fit some larger oversized tires. Amy helped me out deciding which chains would best fit my needs and I still can't believe how fast she turned the order around and had them at my house the day before I was leaving for Montana. Can't get better service than that.

Ford F-350 Super Duty
Bought these tire chains for my Ford F-350. Had some days last winter when the driveway below the hill was all ice and plowing would be impossible without chains.
Perfect fit, easy installation and those cam locks are awesome for a tight fit.

These are by far the BEST tire chains I've ever owned. These are for plowing in Maine winter, and these chains are massive! Talk about high quality and super heavy duty!
I put them on with ease. Fitment is perfect.
If you want the best chains on the market, get pewag. The camlock tool is equally heavy duty, big & strong.
I'm very happy with these awesome chains. Nothing's indestructible, but these certainly feel like it.
by:
Ordered chains on a Fri afternoon (Pacific Time) and was a little concerned about delivery before my trip the following Thu. Pleasantly surprised to receive a response later that Friday evening that order was processed and already on its way. Chains arrived the following Tuesday with standard shipping. Didn't end up needing to use chains on my trip to Mammoth but glad I have them and the order processing by etrailer was excellent.

The chains fit our Wrangler Rubicon well, and are really substantially built. I like the cam tensioners. I might add a rubber tension too just to keep everything tight when driving. Really appreciate the quick delivery!
by:
These are top quality chains.
They are made of alloy rather than low carbon steel; which can break when you most need them, and even damage your rig.
Do yourself a favor, and invest in good quality USA made chain. Think about it. If you need chains, you are already in a bad situation to begin with. Spend the extra money to buy real chains. It's worth it.
The square link works very good on ice and snow, and also works great as mud chains for outdoorsman who spend time in the wilderness.

Great product - just what I was looking for - I bought from another site online, bad chains, broke, and didn't work, even damaged my ABS lines when they snapped. They refused any customer service or help. Your chains, received quick and they went right on, no issues - thanks so much for your quick and timely shipping.
by:
These are great tire chains, love them for the plowing!

Great service and the tire chains are easy to put on.

All I can tell you is that they're heavy. I purchased them "just in case" and didn't need them last year. Hopefully, I won't ever need them. Heck; I don't even know if they actually fit, I never even tried them on.

Pewag always has been the standard for chains that are designed to do the work when you have to get work done. The fit was as expected you just have to tie back the tails on the inside where they don’t hit the strut tower. A couple of zip ties works
Thanks Tim for the help

Chains worked as designed. We use them in our trips to our farms in Montana and Wyoming when roads are open of course. Truck and trailer do not slip or fish tail.

@Wesley That's awesome! Sounds like you are really using them to their full abilities!
by:
These Pewag chains are VERY heavy duty and seem to be well made and strong. The cam tighteners will make adjusting chains easier.
Service from etrailer was very helpful in getting the correct size for tires and vehicle, and the chains were shipped quickly.

These chains on my Jeep Rubicon are fantastic. I am a volunteer firefighter and EMT in the mountains of Colorado. I need to get to emergency incidents in the worst of weather. These chains make that possible.
