For your 1996 Ford Bronco with 31 x 10.50-15 tires I recommend the Pewag square link tire chains, part # PWE3210SC. A lot of chains are made with a hard metal on the exterior but are much softer once you get through the outer layer, but not these. They're made of a high quality manganese alloy steel that's solid all the way through. They also have cam tighteners that are easy to use. The square links provide maximum contact and dig into the ice and snow compared to twist link chains.

Go with the same style of chain for your Chevy 2500 as well. But I don't know your exact tire size so I can't recommend a specific part number. If you can get back to me with the size I'd be happy make the recommendation.

Thanks for letting me know. The # PWE3210SC chains aren't going to fit both tire sizes. Instead use # PWE3227SC for a similar chain to fit the Chevy's tires.
