Should Two Sets of Tire Chains be Used on AWD Vehicle

Published 08/09/2018

Question:

BTW, Im getting 2 sets for the reasons stated in this article: I dont know if you have something similar on your website as a generic guide for 4WD. It might be nice to have.

In general it's always best to have tire chains on all 4 wheels/tires so that you have maximum traction for accelerating, braking, and turning. If only one set is available we recommend using them on the main drive axle of the vehicle whether it's RWD, FWD, or AWD.
