Note: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if chains might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.
The Konig XD-16 Pro tire chains are great all-purpose, winter weather chains. If you live in an area where you're likely to get periodic snow and ice, these Konig chains are perfect because they're durable and easy to mount. If you're more likely to see seriously icy conditions, you may want a chain with V-bar links that can really bite into the ice to give you maximum traction.
These chains are among the easiest and fastest to install because they have built-in tensioners that you can just pull taut to adjust the fit. These tensioners allow the chains to fit your tires, no matter the profile or wear pattern. And because the tensioners are built-in, you never have to worry about losing them like you might with other chains on the market.
Confirming Your Fit
If you know your tire size, you may think you won't need to test fit your new chains. But there are a lot of variables that can affect whether chains will fit your specific tires, including your tire type, the amount of air pressure in the tire, the amount of tread wear, and the tire manufacturer. You'll also need to know how much clearance is in your wheel well, which you can determine by measuring from your tire tread to the sidewall of the wheel well.
We recommend that you order chains as early in the season as possible to give yourself plenty of time to test fit the chains and reorder if needed. This way, you won't be stuck out in the cold later with snow chains that don't fit.
You can test fit these chains in your garage or driveway, but you'll want to wait until there's snow on the ground to actually drive with them. Likewise, if you're out in the snow and come across bare pavement, you'll want to pull over and remove the chains. Even these low-profile chains can cause damage to the bare pavement, your garage floor, or your vehicle if they break from the wear of riding on a harsh surface.
Installing Tire Chains
Installing these chains is incredibly simple.
1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks in them.
2. Slide the chain behind the tire and connect the ends of the blue cable, which will sit behind the tire.
3. Around front, connect the red hook to the red link.
4. At the bottom of the tire, feed the tensioning chain through the large clip and tug it until it's tight.
5. Feed the tensioning chain through as many red clips along the side chain as you can, leaving room to still be able to stretch the hook across the tire. Attach the hook to the side chain directly across from the last clip you ran the tensioner through. The hook should face away from your tire.
6. Drive forward around 325' (about the length of a football field) and stop. Check the chains and tighten them as needed.
Quick Tips:
- Lengthen the life of snow chains by drying them after each use before you store them.
- Check out our installation kit with safety lights and a kneeling pad (PO34FRK) to make things a little easier when you're installing chains out in the snow.
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.
185/60-15
- (185) - indicates tire width in millimeters
- (60) - gives you the aspect ratio (sidewall height as percentage of width)
- (15) - denotes the diameter of the wheel rim in inches

The on line and telephone experience was perfect. The product is great. Easier to install than I thought and a giant leap above tire chains for which you have to crawl under the truck to install them. Workmanship on the chains looks very solid, time will tell. The only reason for my 4 star rating rather than 5 star to total uselessness of the included directions. Watching the video was much more informative and understandable than the included directions. These were intended to be understandable for multiple language speakers, and that's a good intent. However the pictures and symbols are barely sufficient let alone complete and clear instructions. I would recommend these chains to anyone shopping but I would also recommend watching the video on the etrailer website and forget the included directions.
by: Keith12/08/2023
These chains are solid and well built. Did a test fit and were easy to install and fit well on 265/60 R20 tires. I chose Konig brand chains based on other web site forum reviews, but trailer.com not only carried them in the size I needed but had a ton of information and help videos the helped me be confident in my choice. etrailer.com not only delivered them fast, the communication before and after was great.
by: Jeffrey 11/06/2023
I've had these before for a previous company vehicle and they are awesome! Pulling a 4 ton trailer down a snowy road, they held on tight. Smooth ride.
Excellent place to order from. Fast shipping and great customer service. Thank you!

I had not received my order as of this email. I called my neighbors and located that it was delivered to 2160 Springer Rd . I am told by 2160 the box is in terrible condition, I will confirm and send pictures when I get home on the 20th

Fantastic experience! I could not find the correct size for my car. Tirechain.com, AutoZone, and others did not carry the correct size for my 2022 vehicle. Thankfully etrailer.com had what we were looking for and they were able to get the chains to me in a couple of days at a minimal cost. Thanks guys
by: Ryan01/20/2023
I used these on my wife's 22 Mercedes GLS450, on a recent trip to Mammoth. The tire size 325/35/23 for her car was very difficult to find so I was very impressed with the fit and function of these. We drove for about 50 miles with them over the weekend and were very easy to install and remove.
by: Jeff 11/20/2022
I just practiced installing these chains. It went very smoothly while following the easy to use instructions. Pretty quick, less than 5 minutes per tire.
by: Zemmy04/26/2022
Amazing product! Excellent look and execution of design. Better than expected fit on tire size too. Recommend measuring inboard clearance between sidewall and upper control arm (any suspension components) to ensure full inch of room. Mine (cityboy Ram 1500 4X4 Sport) was insufficient (half inch) to clear chain on front tires. Still LOVE these chains and no regrets on purchase. Order early as mine took months to arrive (they told me that upfront though so not a dig on company at all). Highly recommend!
by: Gorden01/05/2023
Great product but fantastic service! Friendly and super fast overnight!
Best ever! Thank you so much!

This is my second snow chain of Konig. Great quality. There're similar products out there for cheaper price. But this build quality and thoughtful detailed design worth its price.
by: Frank 10/27/2022
I have not used these yet. But I have purchased before and they are a well made product. Easy installation once you do it once, read the directions.
by: Jeffrey 12/23/2022
These chains are awesome. Easy to put on even if you're already stuck. Great service and fast shipping. Thanks!

For your '22 Ram 2500, the Class S chains that are the best are from Konig, with the correct fit depending on your tire size: - 275/70-18 & 285/70-17: Konig Tire Chains # KON44FR - 245/70-17: Konig Tire Chains # TH2004705255 - 285/60-20: Konig Tire Chains # KON64FR These are the...

These are Class S compatible which means the amount of clearance required is minimal, they are easy to install, provide great traction, and also will last a long time due to higher quality alloy construction. These only require 16 mm of clearance on inner sidewall and top of tire.

These are also made from a harder steel that allows them to last longer and have an easier to install design than most options.

I checked with Titan an their Chain Cable Tire Chain item # TC751DC you were looking at do not fit the 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning with 275/50R22 tires. Additionally, your owner's manual says not to use tire chains because of clearance issues on the inner part of the tires. Which means the ones we do have for your Lightning's 275/50R22 like item # KON64FR won't work. With this in mind, I only have one set that will work and it is not an inexpensive option.

view full answer... - Recommended Konig Chains For a 2020 Ram 1500 With 295/65-20 TiresFor your 2020 Ram 2500 4x4 with 295/65-20 tires, I recommend the Konig # KON74FR. The diamond pattern chain gives superior traction in icy/snowy conditions. This chain is a drape over chain and is much easier to install than your traditional "ladder style" tire chains. Most folks say that with a little practice, they can install each chain in about 30 seconds. I have linked our review video below if you want to take a look.

I'd recommend the Konig Diamond Pattern - D Link chains, part # KON64FR. The diamond pattern keeps more of the chains in contact with the road surface for great traction and lateral stability. The chains are covered by a 5 year warranty, as opposed the 30 day warranty offered by the Titan chains you'd looked at. These would be a great option for your...

These are a great lower priced option that will installs relatively easily and provide much better traction than cables. If you wanted something with superior traction and will last much longer the Konig set part # KON64FR would work great and is also low clearance.

If you're wanting best of the best then the Konig Tire Chains # KON64FR can't be beat.

view full answer... - Konig Tire Chains for 305/55-20 TiresThe only option for Konig tire chains that will fit your 305/55-20 tires is the Konig XD-16 Pro # KON64FR. There is no XG-12 Pro model that will fit your tire size. These use a diamond pattern with square links, and have assisted tensioning instead of self-tensioning. It is also worth noting that these are not Class S compatible. If you need Class S compatible tire chains the only option would be the # TC2337.

For similar Class S chains that fit the 285/60-20 tires on your 2021 Ram 2500 you'll need the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains # TC2335. The Konig brand is more of a high-end brand while the Titan Chain is your mid-tier brand so these aren't the same quality but they will still get the job done...

With that said, we currently do not have a V-Bar style tire chain available, unfortunately. However, we do have the Konig Snow Tire Chains - XD16 Pro # KON64FR, again not V-Bar, but this does have D-shape links and a diamond pattern for increased traction. They are also a manganese nickel alloy steel construction that is durable and corrosion resistant, so they are highly recommended.
