Expert Reply:
Your 285/45R22 tire size is not among the stock sizes offered on the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe so I checked the owner's manual for guidance concerning tire chain use on the vehicle. This tire size is not recommended for use with tire chains, according to the owner's manual on page 370. The issue is inadequate clearance within the wheel wells. Chain use on such tires could result in damage to brake and suspension components.
If you should ever change to a smaller 255/70-17 tire size you CAN then use tire chains on the rear tires. Options are shown on the linked page. For a low-cost chain use Titan # TC2321 or for a more advanced chain with user-friendly features consider Thule's K-Summit # TH02230K77 which include rim protection, automatic tension control and a quick-release.
