Expert Reply:

We do have a handful of tire chains to fit the 33x12.50R20 tires on your 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. I've linked our selection for you to filter through but out of the options here are my recommendations for cost-effective vs the best:

Cost Effective - Titan Chain # TC3231CAM
Best - # pewag # PW94FR

The Titan Chain option is a simple ladder style chain that uses a twist link chain for adequate traction, whereas the pewag alternative uses grooved square links for much better traction. I also recommend picking up some chain tensioners # PW103 to help keep the chains snug against the tires.

When it comes to clearance that's something you'll need to check out on your end unfortunately. Since you have tires that didn't come standard with your Jeep it means we are kind of in the dark with what type of clearances you'll have or need. Typically clearance issues are found on the inner side of the tire where you'll see cables and brake lines.

If you're wanting more specific answers about tire chain fitment then your local Jeep dealer should be able to give you alternative guidelines from what is found in the owner's manual.
