Expert Answers about Pewag
- What Works Better Snow Chains Or Snow Cables On A 2007 Nissan Frontier 4X4
- Both of the snow chains and snow cables will work great in snow conditions. The difference is the snow chains will give you better grip in more ice conditions because the chain links will bite into the ice where as the snow cables tend to slide over the ice. The snow chains will make a little more noise on dry pavement as compared to the snow cables.

- Using the part # PWE2219SC that you referenced would provide 1 pair of chains to cover two single tires. If you wanted chains on all four rear tires, part # PWE4219SC would be a better choice for dual wheels. You would need one set for each side.
Should you follow the advice of Mercedes and chain all four rear tires, or just two of them?
That will have to be up to your discretion. Having all four rear tires chained up will provide superior traction versus having chains on two tires....

- For the best performance, I would recommend going with the Pewag All Square Tire Chains, # PWE3210SC, that you referenced. The square link chains have an edge that will help grip on ice and in heavy snow conditions.
As far as damage is concerned, you will likely see chain marks on your driveway if it is a blacktop driveway with any type of tire chain. The blacktop surface is softer than concrete and is not very durable against metal.

- For your 35x12.5r18 tires, I recommend the Pewag All Square Mud Service Snow Tire Chains - 1 Pair, # PWE2441S. These are designed for on or off road use in mud or snow. These chains are made from a durable and rust resistant nickel manganese alloy steel. The links are 8.2mm thick and a square link that will give you superior strength and grip. You will also want some rubber adjusters like # PW99 to keep the chains tight.
For a slightly more economical option, I recommend the Pewag...

- Performance wise, the Thule XG-12 Self-Tensioning Tire Chains, part # TH01594245 and the Pewag # PWSXV580 Snox Pro chains are pretty similar. Both use square chain links for superior bite into slick surfaces.
As far as ease of installation, I'd give the Pewag Chains a slight edge. I also like the way the Pewag chains have the permanently installed bumpers that prevent the chains from damaging the vehicle's wheels, rather than the more temporary ones on the Thule chains. Another plus,...

- The only tire chain that we currently have listed as a fit for the 245/50-18 tires on your 2014 BMW X3 are the Pewag Snox Pro Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains, # PWSXV580. These chains are Class S rated, which means they also qualify for the Class U rating. Class U is actually less restrictive than Class S, so these will work great for you.

Unfortunately we have not had the chance to install these chains on a dual rear wheel vehicle yet, so the photo you see is the generic photo of the ASV tire chains from the manufacturer. These chains will fit dual 11-22.5 wheels and includes a complete chain set for 1 axle.

- The Class U chains required by your 2008 Winnebago, are for regular and all square chains on vehicles with at least 1.97 inches of wheel well clearance. The Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners, # PWE2219SC, will fit your tire and wheel well. The chain links themselves are only 5.6 millimeters think so there should still be enough clearance between the two tires.

The Pewag All Square Reversible Snow Tire Chains # PWE2228SC that you referenced are an excellent choice for on-road use but since you are intending to use these off-road as well you will be better off using chains # PWE2228S. These also are reversible all-square chains.

I was able to find a V-Bar Snow Chain, part # PWH2828SC that will fit both tire sizes you mentioned and can be used on or off-road.

- Many tire chains will fit a range of tire sizes. There is usually a list after the description on the product page for each tire chain we carry.

Many vehicle manufacturers will have specific recommendations for tire chains, so I suggest you consult your owner's manual and abide by any advice or prohibitions found there. Your owner's manual states that the side chain width should be no more than 10mm. Thule's Low-Pro Tire Chains, part # TH04115097 meet this specification.

I measured the chains on this system and the width of the chains is 11.46 mm. You mentioned the owner's manual said the chains were to be 10 mm. These would be approximately 1/16 inch wider than you stated the manual said is needed.

view full answer... - Chains vs Cables for 2014 Dodge Ram 3500 4-Wheel Drive Pick Up Truck with LT275/70-R18 Tires
- I recommend chains because they will have superior traction in snow and grip on ice. Cables and/or rollers have good traction in light snow and a relatively smooth ride.
The Pewag # PWXMR81V you referenced will only work with 185/60-R15 size tires.
The one I recommend is the diamond pattern Titan chain # TC2533. The diamond pattern will offer more tire coverage. The square link type will have squared edges providing more "bite". The ride is a little rougher versus others.
