Installation
1. Drape the chain over the tire and drive forward 1/2 of a tire revolution. (You can also lay the chain out and then drive onto it.)
2. Reach around to the back of the tire and fasten the rear side cable by running the end with the metal stops through the eye of the hook on the opposite end.
3. Run any excess side cable through the metal clip.
4. Repeat this process on the front side of the tire.
5. Drive forward 1 car length, then check the chain and hand tighten it again if needed.
You can use rubber or chain adjusters (sold separately) to increase the tension on the chains for a tighter fit.

The low-carbon steel rollers on these ladder-pattern cable chains provide good traction in light snow. The low profile ensures a smooth ride for vehicles with limited wheel well clearance.Purchased Titan Tire Chains for Wide Base Tires - Ladder Pattern - Square Link part TC3229S for a 2018 Ram 2500 with OEM 275/70/R18 tires. These are great chains and very heavy-duty for wide base tires. I mounted them on the rear axle of the Ram and discovered the chain in close proximity to the P-Brake cable, too close for my comfort. I believe the wide base chains are too wide for these OEM tires and fit was pretty loose.
One could gain more clearance near the E-Brake by attaching the inside hook to the end (last) link. Then using a chain a tightener do your best to take up all the outside slack. I just was not comfortable with the overall fit so I send these chains back. Very painless return made easy by etrailer because they emailed a return UPS label.
After reviewing tech info and reviews I purchased Titan Alloy Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link part TC2533 for the 2018 Ram 2500. These are regular duty and a better fit. These chains offer a lot more clearance for the P-Brake cable. They are a cleaver design, have great carrying case and are fairly quick to install. I have not purchased winter tires for this vehicle so the Ram need chains to pull a travel trailer up and down our snow-covered road.
I haven't used them yet, but they are WAY lighter than the old school chains. A lot easier to store and move around.
These cable chains are exactly as described, perfect for Pennsylvania winters!
Needed something for traction on Ranger UTV with 14" car tires. Best price with excellent service.
I've used the cable snow chains with steel rollers in Colorado when the DOT announced chain laws over the radio. It does its job of keeping the vehicle on the road and it's easy to put on the wheels. Great for emergency use if caught in ice or snow. I keep two pairs of chains in the car just in case we run into increment weather. As to the different brands, I'll have to see which one lasts longer when they are used. Etrailer is a great place to shop.
Tom M - 02/23/2016Cables are compact for fitting in low profile areas like my wife's Honda Accord. Only issue is that the size recommended, I'm on the last rung of the cable and not able to attach the extra safety loop. It still seems very secure though. The deeper the snow the better, as it lessens road vibration. In PA we had ice and about 5 inches of snow on the roads. I went everywhere better than the 4x4's were making out. Thousands cheaper than buying a new truck. More $$$ for my hotrod fund.
CUSTOMER SERVICE was EXCELLENT and 5 star! I even received a follow up email and phone call. I'm in sales and can't say this even happens anymore. Thank you !
Thanks so much for your assistance in compliance with our new traction law on I70 through the Colorado mountains. Your site was easy to use in sizing chains, ordering with fast, efficient delivery. Additionally the installation video was very helpful for those of us new to the process.
These chains are a safety feature to be carried in my wife's trunk so IF & WHEN we do need them we will have them handy. This works along the same principle as having a spare tire in your trunk. When you have an unexpected flat tire you are so thankful you have a solution to your problem with you.
Thanks,

These chains are awesome, super easy to install and they work great. We had some snow recently and these were exactly what I needed, I was able to get up the hill near my house when 4x4 trucks couldn't.
Don't buy these chains. Ladder chains are inferior to Z-type or diamond-pattern chains, and are occasionally prohibited on certain icy highways.
These are also of low quality construction. I had an issue where the chain got bent around itself (and my axle), so it could not be removed, and had to be cut off my car.
These are good quality cables, I never had to use them, the studded tires got me through an easy winter before trading in the car. I just carried them just in case.
Low profile, easy to put on. Cheap for nice quality.
Good looking product. Having chains in the trunk during winter travel is a must here in CA. CHP will turn you around in a second and you will have to hunt for chains who knows where, if you don't plan ahead. A great insurance policy to have these in the trunk, even if you don't use them. The set I bought for another car never got used, but I don't consider them a waste of money.
I have not used the product yet but the service that was provided by Etrailer,com was great!!!!
I have not tried the chains yet, but the shipping was incredibly fast and communication/notifications were great. Hoping the product is just as good! Price was fantastic!
