Expert Reply:
In regards to the pewag Wide Base Tire Chains part # PW94FR, you should not air down as this can cause the tire chains to slip since you're changing the dimensions of the tire. In most cases, a more narrow tire is actually better in the snow/ice than a wider one as they are able to cut through the snow and ice better.
