Expert Reply:

The best tire chains for your 1988 Ford F-150 with 235/75R15 size tires are the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains # TC2519. These chains feature square links that are configured in the "diamond" pattern for great traction on snow and excellent grip for ice. They have a manganese nickel alloy construction that strengthens them but also helps to protect against rust.

A reusable plastic storage case is included as well as the integrated tensioner.

For a more cost-effective option we have the Glacier Alloy Square-Link Snow Tire Chains # TC2219CAM. These are basically the same chains but they are in a "ladder" pattern which doesn't have as much traction as the "diamond" pattern. The coating on these is alloy to help strengthen and protect them.

These also come with a storage case but a tensioner will need to be purchased separately as part # PW100 or # TCMA1.
