Question:
2009 dodge diesel which tire chains would be best for hunting in mountains. Will be in mud and heavy snow. Glacier mud or glacier v bar which one would be best? I will also be pulling a cargo trailer.

Expert Reply:
The V-bar style of chain like the part # PWH2828SC is great for heavy snow, but what the V-bars do the best in is ice situations as they break up the ice well.
For heavy snow and mud the Mud Service Chains by Glacier like the part # TC2828CAM would be your best option as the links are much bigger which does better with the deeper stuff what you would encounter.
Since I don't know what size tires you have on your vehicle I can't really make a specific recommendation. I did attach a page that has the different vehicle tire sizes we offer for your truck for you to check out.
