- 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.

- For a set of tire chain tensioners (adjusters) that will fit the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners part # PWE2255SC on your 335/80-20 tires I recommend using the Glacier Multi-Arm Rubber Adjusters part # PW103.

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.

- I checked the 2016 BMW X3 owner's manual and have the following information on the use of tire chains.
Use tire chains on the rear wheels on the following tire sizes only:
205/65-17
225/60-17
245/50-18

Do NOT use tire chains on tire size 245/55-17 (or a different size) and chains on the front are not recommended for any size.

- 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.

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.

- 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,...
