Question:

I have a 2012 Chevy Silverado LT pickup. It has 275/50/20 tires on it. Which of the Konig Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link - Self Tensioning tire chains fit? I did not see that tire size on the chart.

Expert Reply:

There are snow tire chains that that fit your 275/50-20 size tires, but none of the Konig self-tensioning chains with square links, which I verified directly with Konig. For square link chains that do fit you'll need an option from pewag:

- pewag Tire Chains w/ Cams - Ladder Pattern - Grooved Square Link - Assisted Tensioning # PWE2228SC

The square links on these chains are grooved (instead of completely rounded) which help with traction, and they also have cams which allow you to adjust how tight the chains are around your Chevy's tires. That said, it is still highly recommended you use tensioners for a consistently snug fit, the Tire Chain Tensioners # PW97.
