Question:
Can you tell me the weight of the TC3229CAM versus the weight of the cable chain equivalent ,,,3029 LT285x60-20 2004 Dodge Ram
asked by: Ken
Expert Reply:
The Titan Chain Tire Chains # TC3229CAM that you referenced weighs about 39 pounds for the set (both chains) while the Titan Cable Chains # TC3029 weigh just 13 pounds for the set. This significant difference is due to the more heavy-duty nature of steel round link chains vs cable rollers.
Lighter cable chains are a good option for temporary use but they aren't going to hold up to more frequent applications and are less effective in snow and ice compared to traditional chains. Both options are a good fit for the ST285/60-20 size tires on your Ram.
