I don't have an exact reason as to why self-tensioning tire chains are not recommended for a 2021 Ford Transit T250 per the owner's manual but we have plenty of manual tension options that will work for you depending on your tire size. It looks like there are only two sizes which can use chains for AWD models, 205/75-16 and 235/65-16 so I have attached options for both of these sizes below. Please note, the chains must only be installed on the rear and they must also be class s rated.

235/65-16: Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC2318

205/75-16: Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC1547

I like the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains because they have a diamond pattern for a better ride quality, color coded sections for easy installation, and coated sections for wheel protection.
