    V-Bar Icebreakers

    V-Bar Icebreakers

    These chains are outstanding in serious winter weather conditions because the V-bar studs can bust through intense ice and packed snow. So, you'll be able to get to work and back home again even in the toughest weather. You can also use them if you ever go off-roading and end up in a mud-digging situation. These chains are going to help give your vehicle purchase to pull out and keep moving.


    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. You'll also need to know how much clearance is in your wheel well, which you can determine by measuring from your tire tread to the sidewall of the wheel well.


    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.


    Installing Tire Chains

    Installing these chains is simple.


    Lay chains on the ground to get all the tangles out

    1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks.


    Drape chains over tire.

    2. Drape the chain over the tire, ensuring that the V-bar studs face away from the tire.


    Make connections

    3. On the back of the tire, pull the chain tight and hook the ends together. Repeat this on the front of the tire.


    Attach optional tensioners

    4. Drive forward 2-3 vehicle lengths and recheck the chain tension. Tighten the chain as needed by moving the hook to the next link.


    Attach optional tensioners

    If needed, rubber adjusters (sold separately) can be used to help give you a tight fit. Make sure the hooks on the adjusters face away from your tire so your wheels don't get scratched.


    Quick Tips:

    • Lengthen the life of snow chains by drying them after each use before you store them.
    • Check out our installation kit with safety lights and a kneeling pad (PO34FRK) to make things a little easier when you're installing chains out in the snow.

    How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle

    To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire.


    Tire size on sidewall

    185/60-15

    1. (185) - indicates tire width in millimeters
    2. (60) - gives you the aspect ratio (sidewall height as percentage of width)
    3. (15) - denotes the diameter of the wheel rim in inches

    • Comparing Twist Link and V-Bar Style Tire Chains
      Twist link chains offer excellent traction in deep snow and some are even rated for mud. They provide decent traction on ice, and since they have rounded edges ride quality isn't too bad. V-Bar chains are similar but have better grip on ice. For your Ram 3500 with tires sized 275/55/20 a twist link chain would be the Titan Chain # TC2228CAM. These also come with cams for a desired tight fit. For V-bar chains you can use the Titan Chain # TC2828 chains. These can be used on or off road.

    • Snow Chains Recommendation for 2017 Toyota Tundra Crewmax 4x4 275/65-18
      We carry several sets of tire chains for the tire size 275/65R18 but if you are looking for something priced great, is easy to install, and provides great traction you'd want the part # TC2327. I attached an install video for these chains for you to check out as well.

    • Snow Chains that Fit 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L without Clearance Issue front Axle Suspension
      Sounds like you have a clearance issue that is preventing the Titan chains part # TC2828 from fitting safely on your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. There isn't a way to install these differently so that this would stop happening so your best option would be a set of chains with better clearance like the Konig set part # TH2004705265 which are Class S compatible and have much lower clearances. For a set that doesn't drape over the inside of the tire at all the K-Summit chains part # TH02230K77...

This should help prevent the studded links from causing more damage to your wheel well. You are also...

    • On-Road Versus Off-Road Tire Chains and Ones That Work Best For Mud
      Off-road chains are built to be stronger as they will be subjected to more stress than a tire chain for on-road use only. The chains will also use larger links so to provide better traction off-road. The v-link chains like the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains # TC2828 are not rated for mud use even though they are an on-road/off-road chain. The V-link works very well on ice as it creates several traction points. These are designed for 15" - 22" wheels, be sure to verify your exact size tire...

    • Tire Chain Tensioners To Use with Titan Tire Chains TC2828
      The Titan Chain Link and Spring Tire Chain Adjuster for Light Trucks # TCSA2 when used with the Titan chains part # TC2828 has the advantage of being all metal instead of having a rubber component that over time might be prone to failing. These are also a little easier to install than rubber tensioners like the part # TCOA2 that you also referenced.

Instead, for USA-made snow tire chains that offer excellent traction in deep snow what you will need is the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners # PWE2228SC. These chains have 5.6-mm-thick square links for the aggressive grip you are looking for. I have added a link below to a video review for you to check...

    • Tire Chains for a 2013 Toyota Tundra 4x4 and 24 to 30 Inches of Snow
      Even military eqipment especially equipped for snow will have trouble with 30 inches of snow. No pickup truck is going to push this amount of snow. Maybe if you have it equipped with a snow blade to clear the road ahead of you. For heavy snow I recommend going with square links because they will have the most grip and the links tend to be larger than other chain types. I am not sure though if you should use chains while on the frozen lake since the steel could crack the ice. If you have...

    • Snow Chains for a 2022 Ford Expedition with 275/65-18 Tires
      For your 2022 Ford Expedition with 275/65-18 tires I recommend the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern - V-Bar Links - 1 Pair item # TC2828. The V-bar studs on these tire chains bite into the ice to give you superior traction, while the ladder-pattern design assists with effective starts and stops. Durable low-carbon steel twist links also offer excellent grip in deep snow.

    • Comparing Titan Chains With and Without Cams
      You are correct that cams are not generally made for off-road-use chains as the rough terrain increases the likelihood that they can come undone. When comparing the two Titan chains for your 265/75R16 tires, part # TC2828 and part # TC2828CAM, they are both great chains that have almost all of the same qualities (save for the cams). If you plan on travelling off-road, then go with the # TC2828. If you don't, then go with the # TC2828CAM since the cams make it much easier to get a tight...

    • What Tire Chains do You Recommend for My 2018 Ford F-150 with 275/65-18 Tires?
      Thanks so much for your trust in us! The reason why some vehicle manufacturers recommend Class S tire chains is to wash their hands of any liability if there is any damage sustained to components within the wheel wells. Since Class S chains are generally much smaller than non Class S chains, the assumption is that Class S chains will give you more space. With that being said, if you have the required wheel well clearance for non Class S chains, you can safely use the tire chains. Since...

    • Best Tire Chains for Trips to California Mountains - V-Bar Vs Twist Link
      The best tire chains for your family trips to the California mountains are, as you suspected, the V-bar style chains. The main difference between the Titan V-Bar Tire Chains # TC2828 and the Titan Twist Link Snow Tire Chains # TC2228 is their aggressiveness and ride quality. As you mentioned, the v-bar style chains are going to offer the most traction and are best equipped to really bite into that ice and provide excellent grip in deep snow.

You can get the chains with the cams included with the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains w/ Cams - Ladder Pattern - V-Bar Link - 1 Pair # TC2828CAM instead of adding the Titan Chain Multi-Arm Rubber Tire Chain Adjuster for Heavy Trucks - 1 Pair # TCMA3.

    • Tire Chain Recommendation for Driving on Ice with 275/65-18 Size Tires
      For your 275/65-18 tires I recommend the Titan Chain V-Bar Style # TC2828. The V-Bar links provide the best traction for ice because they basically give your tires cleats. These use the standard ladder pattern and can be used for both on and off the road. I do also recommend using the Chain Adjusters # TCMA2 to help keep the chains pulled tight against your tires. Just a few extra things to note are that you'll want to check your owner's manual to make sure that chains can safely be used...

The question about the cams is a really good one. We've asked our tire chain manufacturers this before and they've said that the cams are a weaker point on the chains so for serious off-roading you'd not want to use the...

I confirmed this with one of our tire chain manufacturers. With that being said, you always want to make sure that you're checking out the owner's manual for your vehicle and abiding by any guidelines in there.

    • Should Ladder Chains or Diamond Pattern Chains be Installed on Rear Tires of a 2006 Ford F-250
      If your 2006 Ford F-250 is a 4x4 then it would be best to put the ladder pattern chains, like part # TC2828, on the rear axle and the diamond pattern chains, like part # TH01594267, on the front axle. This is due to the reduced clearance that front tires normally have. I do recommend using the same type of tire chains though if you have AWD enabled on your pickup. This will give you a more consistent tread pattern which, in turn, will give you a better driving experience. Please note...
