For Thule tire chains, the XB-16 chains are what they recommend for Vans and RVs. Some of the tires sizes for these different vehicles overlap so that is why you see both when you enter a tire size or go through the fit guide.
I would go with the XB-16 chains, # TH01571245, since they are designed for for RVs.
Class S chains require the least amount of clearance around the tire and are typically required on minimal clearance vehicles. The XB-16 chains are not Class S compatible meaning... view full answer...

The load that you are carrying on a daily basis is causing your 2013 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 to sag and bottom out. You will need suspension enhancement and I strongly recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TMBRSP25A.
These work independently of one another so if an uneven load in the back of your van that you would still be level when driving. These springs do not require drilling to install or any maintenance after you have them installed. view full answer...

The anti-sway bar that fits your rig is the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar for Vans # RM-1209-131 which is going to greatly improve how your motorhome performs when encountering those... view full answer...
I apologize for any confusion but the correct Roadmaster Sway Bar kit for your 2015 Mercedes Benz Sprinter Class B RV is the part # RM-1209-120. The part # RM-1209-131 is for the Class C chassis which you do not have.

On a 2 wheel drive vehicle you want to at least have chains on the drive axle. If it's a rear wheel drive vehicle then you would go with the rear axle and vice versa for a front wheel drive vehicle.
Ideally having chains on all 4 wheels will provide you with the best possible traction for braking, turning and accelerating. Before you install chains on your vehicle you will need to check with the owners manual of the vehicle to determine if there are any restrictions on chain usage.

You may be able to install Rhino-Rack RT roof tracks, however, this would require drilling into your roof and Rhino-Rack actually recommends installing legs that attach to your vehicle's OEM mounting points on the roof.

Rubber jounce springs stiffen the rear end, not exactly what... view full answer...

The low-profile-type of snow chains referred to in the manual for your 2013 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 Van with LT245\75R\16 tires are referred to as Class S snow chains.

Please note the chains you referenced, part # PW2029C, do not fit your tire size.
The two linked articles on snow chains will provide you with some useful... view full answer...
Your vehicle is equipped with a Lamp-Out sensor. Because the LED lamps on your trailer draw only a fraction of the power that comparable incandescent lamps would, the vehicle lamp-out sensor thinks there's a burned out bulb which causes the hyperflash or fast blink you described. Using a # 20142 Trailer Connector Adapter will bypass that sensor and your turn signals on the vehicle and trailer will work correctly.
