For the 255/80-17 tires on your Ram, I'd recommend the # TC2237 from Titan Chain. These chains are rated for deep snow or mud use and the twisted links are specifically designed for good traction on or off road. Also recommended is a set of adjusters like # TCMA2, which will do a good job of keeping the chains taut.

The # TC2828CAM v-bar chains you'd looked at aren't the best choice for muddy off-road conditions.

Twist link chains offer excellent traction in deep snow and some are even rated for mud. They provide decent traction on ice, and since they have rounded edges ride quality isn't too bad. V-Bar chains are similar but have better grip on ice. For…
