Class S Designation

SAE Class S tire chains are designed for use on vehicles with restricted wheel-well clearance. Certain newer cars, vans and small trucks, especially those with large, aftermarket tires, may require Class S chains.

SAE Class S Clearance Diagram

These chains will fit your tires provided there is both:

  • A - a minimum of 1.46" (37 mm) between the top of the tire tread and the wheel well
  • B - at least 0.59" (15 mm) between the tire's sidewall and the vehicle

How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle

To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire.

Tire size on sidewall

185/60-15

  1. (185) - indicates tire width in millimeters
  2. (60) - gives you the aspect ratio (sidewall height as percentage of width)

Video Transcript for Glacier V-Trac Cable Snow Tire Chains Road Test

Speaker 1: When snow and ice make driving difficult tire chains can give you the traction you need to maintain control of your vehicle. Laws regarding snow chain use vary by region. Your area may require the use of tire chains in certain weather conditions. You'll also want to check your owner's manual to see what your vehicle's manufacturer says regarding tire chain use.Let's look at our tire chains in action. These are great for light snow and ice. The diagonal V-pattern offers a steadier, more refined ride than traditional cross cables.

The steel rollers help to grip the road. These include a rubber adjuster to maintain tension on the chains, while the low profile design offers a smooth ride over larger square link chains. Check out our handling as we turn. And check them out when we brake.

Have done a practice of putting on my cable chains in nice weather. At first it was a struggle but with the second tire it went smoother as I was used to how the assembly worked. Finished work was a very nice and snug fit. Really nice workmanship! These are going to be perfect for when the weather gets bad. Thanks!



by:

Used these tire chains only once to exit a snow-covered gravel camp road for less than one mile. They provided some additional traction, but were insufficient to help navigate a steep grade. (I needed a tow for that section of road). After returning home a few days later, the chains had already begun to rust, and several of the traction parts had twisted together during use, making them difficult to get apart and reset to original position. The vinyl carrying bag the product comes in had already started to fall apart. See attached photos.

I purchased the Glacier V-Trac Cable Snow Tire Chains PW2114V.
The order was delivered quickly and the shipping was free.

I have a 2015 Ram with P275 60 R20 tires. There are not many styles that fit the tire. I read a review where the purchaser said they did not fit. The cables are a very tight fit and take a little extra finessing, but they do fit. I am very happy with the product.



by:

Great customer service. Product as described (tire chains); won't use until needed, but do not anticipate any problems.



by:

The chains were to small to fit the tires of my truck. Patrick O handled the problem quickly and to my satisfaction. Thanks for the great service.



by:

The chains were delivered quickly. I can't give a review because we never needed to use them. They haven't even been out of the bag they came in. Now we don't have the same vehicle so we can't se them on the new one since the tires are different. We had to get more chains for the new car. I wish you had a deal where you could send back unused chains a year later for a different size.



by:

Chains broke after 2 days of usage. Etrailer basically told me to ask the manufacturer to fix it. They were not interested in replacing the broken chain. Will not buy from Etrailer again. Since they don’t stand behind what they sell.



by:

I live in Hot Springs AR?, we still have not had heavy snow or any ice storms. I bought them because I had a terrible experience in Texas. The chains look fine, and they should work well too.



by:

Purchase went smoothly. Fast shipping. I have not used the cable snow chains yet, but I did put them on my car to make sure they fit. It takes a few minutes to put the clips on the rubber tension ring. It is best to do this before you need them. Directions with the chains are in small print and not very helpful. Look at the etrailer tutorial video on their web-site - very helpful.



by:

I love these cables. Worked very well. Easy to put on. Good quality. Worth the money. I trust myself when driving in the snow or over ice when these cables are on my tires. Good brand.



by:

Cable ChainsThank you once more. The cable chains look like they are worth the wait. I thank you for immediately informing me that they were out of stock and your offering of another type. I haven't an opportunity to use them just yet, but the installation looks easy and I expect them to be successful when needed. I got these to assist in the upper mountain conditions, when four wheel drive needs additional help! I may even get another set for the front of my vehicle if I feel they are needed! Again, it is a pleasure dealing with superior people and real business that cares!



by:

Good test fit on vehicle, but haven't had a chance to try on snow/ice. Manufacturer's directions are a little hard to follow. Recommend watching etrailer.com's online reviews of product, as they demonstrate installation techniques.



by:

This is my 3rd set of cable chains. They are the best for on the go installation and moderate highway use. couldn't be happier with the service that E-Trailer provided,



by:

The quality of these are very good. The instructions coupled with the video on etrailer.com make them very easy to install. You will want to be careful driving with these installed and keep your speed low.



by:

I used these chains one time and one of the links came apart during that usage. I would not recommend these chains.



by:

Great serviceEasy to use. Good rate of updates and shipping status. Shipping tracker on website is excellent. I would recommend this website to anyone just for the fantastic service. Thanks



by:

Everything arrived on time and as it should. I was gald I tried them on first just to get the hang of installation. The first one took me about 10 minutes but the second one only 5 minutes. I have not used them in snow or ice conditions yet but they look well made and ready to go.



by:

Easy to install. Great service and advice from etrailer. Thanks Sherry.



by:

Haven't tried the chains on yet but the communication was great and the shipping was quick- thanks!



by:

Excellent product, tested immediately works perfectly on my Honda Odyssey



by:

I use these on my 2016 Mazda3 to get up mysnowy mountain road and driveway. They are a pain to put on a car but totally worth it!



by:

Used within past winter and it is still great. Very good quality, product that lasts and works.



by:

Product looks excellent as to quality, and looks to be exactly what the manufacturer recommended. As to how they work on the vehicle in snow, one will have to wait to see, but I feel prepared.



by:

Have not had a chance to use these, but the ordering and shipping went flawlessly. Very quick and reasonably priced. Kept me in the loop the whole way from order to delivery. Well Done!
Will be a customer again!



by:

Delivered on time. I have used these chains before and find that they are just fine until the snow gets over a foot deep, which at that point very little helps anyway.

  • Snow Chains that Fit Tire Size 205/70-16 Recommendation
    The difference in size between the two tire sized you mentioned would not allow the same chain to fit both. The part # PW1926V that you mentioned would fit the 205/70-13 but not the 16 inch tire size. For a similar solution that fits that size you'd want the part # TC335DC if you were wanting cables. Cables are great for a one time use but if you wanted something that wasn't too expensive yet would hold up better a set of pewag chains part # PWRS75 would be a really great option thats...
