Offroad Tire Chain Recommendation For 225/75R16 Tire On A 2019 Ram ProMaster 1500

Question

Question:

I have used the etrailer website to pick out snowchains for a 2019 Promaster 1500 with stock tire size 225/75R16. I need chains that have drape over installation and are rated for mud and offroad use. What makes a snowchain rated for offroad use?

Yes, the Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XB16 - Size 245, part # TH01571245, will fit your vehicle. Since these tire chains are not Class S compatible, you will need to mindful of the wheel well tolerances of your vehicle. This is also why they are better for offroad use, they are made from steel and they have larger D-links.

I have included a video review of these snow tire chains below.

The Titan chains you referenced #TC2519 are a really great value and they will do a solid job but the Konig chains part #TH2004705235 are the better option. They install a little easier, provide better traction, and are made from harder metals so…

One big difference between the XB16 chains like part #TH01571245 and XG12 chains like the #TH01594245 is the link size which is hinted at in the title of the chains. The XB16 requires 16 mm of clearance and the XG12 only requires 12 mm. They are…

I have great news for you. The owner's manual for your ProMaster is very lenient in regards to tire chain use on your vehicle which means you have an excellent selection to choose from. The only restrictions are that you install them on the front…
