Features to know about

Climbing Icy Mountain Roads: V-Bar Studs Bite Deep for Maximum Grip

When the road turns to solid ice or snowpack, these V-bar links dig in hard. Each studded twist link acts like a row of cleats, breaking through ice and gripping the surface so you can keep traction when climbing or braking. The ladder-pattern layout lines the tires with steady rungs of bite, giving confident starts and stops even on steep or slick grades.

Close-up view of Titan Chain snow tire chain with V-bar studs showing the V-shaped metal spikes for superior traction on ice and packed snow.

Handling Deep Snow and Slippery Trails: 7 mm Links Power Through

The 0.281" (7 mm) thick cross links are built to plow through deep snow without folding under pressure. The extra mass gives the chains the heft you want when heading into unplowed roads or icy dirt tracks. Whether you’re hauling a trailer or heading to a backcountry cabin, the design delivers dependable forward pull and control.

Built Tough for Harsh Use: Low-Carbon Steel Links Stand Up to Abuse

These aren’t light-duty snow chains. The low-carbon steel construction is strong and durable for repeated winter use on or off road. The hardened links resist wear and maintain their shape even after spinning through gravel or packed snow. With proper care they’ll last through multiple seasons of rugged driving.

No Cams to Loosen: Simple Manual Setup That Stays Tight

Instead of cam tighteners that can work loose when you back up or hit rough patches, this design keeps things simple with manual link adjustment. Once tightened, the chains hold firm through reversing, turning, and uneven terrain. For an even snugger fit, you can add rubber or chain adjusters (sold separately).

Ready for Big Tires and Heavy Loads: Wide-Base Fit with 30 mph Rating

Sized for 15" – 24" tires, these chains cover a wide range of large and wide-base applications. They’re rated for speeds up to 30 mph and come as a pair, ready to mount when conditions demand serious traction. A reusable storage bag keeps them organized between uses so they’re ready when the snow starts falling.

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.

Great product, got me out of a couple tough situations and kept me on the road when needed.



by:

Great chains for the aggressive mountains of Colorado.



by:

My chains arrived quickly and although I haven’t had the chance to use them yet they are very stout and I do believe they will do as good as I think they will. If they do not I will definitely do another review to refute this statement.



by:

They are heavy duty sized chains!! Have not test fitted yet. Disappointed there is no reusable bag as mentioned in the description. The sack they came in had to be cut open making it not reusable anymore.



by:

Only had to use the chains once but it was pulling a trailer up a icy road and they worked great.



by:

Very good product and on time shipping



by:

Really awesome customer service and super fast shipping. The chains are great quality too and proced right. I will be doing more business with you in the future. Thank you!



by:

Prompt delivery from etrailer. Received them today after ordering just a few days ago. Haven’t used them yet but they appear to be well made. Have a trip to Colorado planned in a week or so, so maybe I’ll get a chance to put them to work.

They got my shipment out the door quickly. The chains fit my Nitto Trail Grappler 35x12.50x17 tires perfectly. Thank you etrailer folks.

Heck Yeah William! We look forward to hearing from you again soon. We are here!



by:

Just bought them, but so far they look good! No issues with quality control and they look sturdy and well built. The installation videos from the etrailer folks on YouTube are excellent to figure out how to install them!

I'm going to travel from Chicago to Alaska this winter, so we'll see if I get a chance to use them on the Alaska highway. Expect an update sometime soon after the New Year.



by:

I received the first pair of snowchains and opened the package and inspected the snowchains. Looking forward to putting the snowchains to use. I will return in the future to post photos and update my review. Pending after my trip to the mountain. Overall happy with the speedy shipping and great customer service.
Thank you

The two sets of chains i ordered showed up quickly. I havent used the chains yet. But ill update this when i do. The 5.5mm diamond chains alot smaller than what i thought they were going to be... we will see how they do on my 1 ton.

Hey i still havent used either set of chains yet. Which is good i guess.

I had placed an order from trailer for some snow chains for my vehicle. Amy, the customer service representative was extremely friendly, courteous and very helpful. She represented the company in a very professional manner. It's a shame other businesses don't have a rep like her.



by:

Very great set of tire chains , better than I expected , they are heavy duty , and the v-bars are out standing , I would highly recommend then to anybody that needs a good set of tire chains. Great Price , Great Quality , Fast Shipping , Thanks



by:

I purchased these tire chains from etrailer due to their amazing customer service. they arrived quickly and are very heavy duty. They do not have the cam chain tensioners, which is why i bought these. I will be using these for off road and did not want a cam that could possibly loosen. I have already cut them to length. they came packaged really well. thanks again etrailer......



by:

Received my chains and tensioners the next day! Incredibly happy with the speed, and quality of the product. I haven't had a chance to use them yet, but should during my upcoming hunting trips.



by:

excellent quality and good price. I've had these over a year now and use the chains occasionally when off-roading with friends in deep snow and/or icy conditions. These have helped me thru terrain that would have been impassable without chains. Highly recommend these for anyone with 35" tires that needs to get thru the roughest winter terrain.



by:

Haven't used my chains yet but did a kind of "dry" fit. They look like they should work on my 285/75-r18 Toyo open country ATII's. Customer service was great and shipping was fast and prompt. Look forward to dealing with these folks again.

Chains were easy to install. I went for a more rugged chain with the cleats, but now wish I got the ones without the cleats for the sake of the roads these may drive on.

Never needed to use them, but they seem to be well built.

Some Deadly tire chains!! I highly recommend these bad boys to anyone who enjoys driving in the snow!

OOHH MAN these tire chains are Awesome!!! I mean awesome for idling around off road in hard snow, deep snow, icy snow lol. I recommend them to anyone who enjoys getting from point A to B no stops in between.



by:

After spending one day of my snowmobile trip digging out my 2008 F-250, I decided to buy chains to get through a mile of unplowed road to our cabin. I bought the TC3831 with V-bar links and chain adjusters TCMA2s so I could tackle the deep snow with ice underneath. The chains were easy to put on and worked excellent on an unimproved road. The heavy 7mm links did a great job of traction and control. I would recommend to anyone that needs to get a truck and trailer to their snowmobile destination. One recommendation is to check your chain tension after spinning the tires.

    Hey Terry! For chains that work with both ice and snow and fit those tires we have the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains for Wide Base Tires # TC3831.

The correct part number is the following: - Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains for Wide Base Tires - Ladder Pattern - V-Bar Links # TC3831 The only other thing I highly recommend adding with the Titan Chains # TC3831 are rubber adjusters to ensure a consistently tight fit, the Titan Chain RA10 Rubber Tire Chain Adjuster # TCOA2.
