Get a smoother ride, better traction, and more stopping power during turns than you'd get with traditional, ladder-pattern cables. These low-profile, lightweight cables are great for driving in light snow. Tensioners are included for a tight fit.
Features:
- Provides traction for your vehicle in light snow
- Diagonal pattern offers steady traction during turns and a smoother ride than ladder patterns
- Made for passenger vehicles with limited wheel-well clearance
- Meets SAE Class S standards
- Works with either front- or rear-wheel-drive vehicles
- Provides alternative to heavy, bulky snow chains
- Low-profile rollers wrap around wire cables for a smoother ride than thick chain links
- Perfect for keeping in your trunk "just in case" when traveling through areas requiring chains on hand
- Includes custom, rubber tensioners to help provide a tight fit
- Constructed of alloy steel for durability and strength
Specs:
- Fits: 16" - 18" tires (for exact sizes, see below)
- Quantity: 2 cable chains
- 30-Day limited warranty
Note: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if they might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.
If you've driven in bad winter weather, then there's no doubt you've experienced the unsettling feeling of your vehicle sliding during turns or bends in the road. Conquer turns and winding country roads with these cable chains from Titan Chain. The diagonal pattern provides better traction during turns than traditional ladder patterns, and because there is always a cable in contact with the ground, it will increase your stopping power too. You won't have to worry about finding the right tensioners either - tensioners designed specifically for these cables are included, ensuring a tight fit.
If you need a little extra traction in the snow, these cables are great. But if you live somewhere where you experience heavy snow often, you'll definitely want something more heavy duty than cables. Because these cable chains are lightweight and don't take up a lot of storage space, they are also perfect for keeping in your trunk if you occasionally travel through areas that require you to have chains on hand.
Class S Designation
SAE Class S tire chains are designed for use on passenger vehicles with restricted wheel-well clearance. Most newer cars, vans, and small trucks - especially those with large aftermarket tires - will require Class S chains. If you're unsure about the class of your vehicle, consult your vehicle's user manual.
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
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 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 Cable Chains
Installing these chains is simple.
1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks.
2. Slide the chain behind the tire and connect the ends of the rear cable.
3. Around front, slide the cable at the top of your tire through the corresponding eye hook. Repeat at the bottom of the tire.
4. Pull the cable as tight as you can, then clip the included rubber adjuster onto the cable in a star pattern. Make sure the hooks on the adjuster face away from your tire so your wheels don't get scratched.
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 chains, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire, as shown below.
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

Shipping was quick and communication was great from purchase to delivery. The cable chains install quick and easy in one step without having to move your vehicle at all. Fit is perfect and snug for my 255/70R18 tires.

The etrailer.com site was easy to navigate and match cables to tire size. The one question I submitted by e-mail was answered promptly. Online purchase was easy. Cables arrived "free shipping" in two days in good condition. I'll have to wait for the first opportunity to see if I am smart and coordinated enough to mount the cables on the tires and assess the fit, and probably longer still to try them in the first snow deep enough to warrant their use.

Low profile and fits as specified. I am a happy camper who hopes to never have to use them!

To be clear, I have not used the tire chains in snow yet. But etrailer's info they provided, clear communication, and speedy delivery were fantastic. I put the tire chains on using their helpful video and had zero problems despite this being my first time ever.

I have not had to use the tire cables as the vehicle I bought them for is 4x4. I’m sure they will work just fine if needed

Haven't used tire cables yet … but … did install one to check the fit and look. And the thing fit perfectly on my 2019 F150 with 245/70r17 tires. Even look pretty good too! I especially like that the cables can be put on as the truck sets - no need to lay them out and back over them. And the carrying bag is nice - keeps everything together and able to be stored under a seat, in the bed, or wherever. I thought about getting chains with v-bars … but didn't think I needed anything that aggressive - so the tire cables ought to do just fine in deeper snow, packed snow and maybe even on ice.

The only thing better than the snow chains was the the ease of ordering. An excellent company! They have gotten me home safe in the worst storms!

I haven't tried them in the snow yet, and hope I never have to, but they're super-easy to install in my driveway. The communication with and service from etrailer was beyond great.

view full answer... - Tire Chain Use on Tandem Axle Horse Trailer with Electric BrakesIf your tandem axle horse trailer has brakes on both axles then ideally you will want to install compatible tire chains on both axles, all four tires. This will do more to avoid the trailer trying to get ahead of you (!) on a slippery road surface. Even if you do not need the chains to slow the trailer they will still help to avoid lateral movement of the trailer on the road. Laws vary by state concerning use of tire chains on trailers. California and Oregon, for example, require chains...

The cables also typically have a tighter fit compared to the bulky chains. If your 2011 GMC Acadia has 255/65-18 tires then you will want to go with Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern - Steel Rollers - 1 Pair # TC2029.

This is a cable design which is typically easier to install and use than chains, and they will be less likely to damage your vehicle if they happen to break.

I was able to research online and found that a 2019 Ram 3500 Dually is equipped with 235/80-17 tires so if that is the case then you can use the Titan Chain Diagonal Alloy Cable Snow Tire Chains part # TC747DC.

I am sure the first thought you have now is why are these so expensive and that would be a valid concern. The Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains are actually designed for vehicles that have limited wheel well clearance. If you look at the chains you will see there is actually no part of the chain which sits on the inside of the...

Since the owners manual specifies 10mm or less, you will need to go with a low-profile or "class-S Compatible" chain. Out of the options that fit the 255/55-20 tires, this leaves us with two options. The Titan Chain Cable Tire Chain # TC747DC and the Konig K-Summit Tire Chains # TH02230K77. The Titan Cables # TC747DC are more of a low-cost option. While cables will provide additional traction and safety this...

I definitely see what you're saying about the 255/55-20 and 255/65-18 tire sizes on a 2019 Chevy Traverse, and while I do agree with you, we stick with going off of what the owner's manual says for the tire chains because if we recommend something else then that can be a liability-type issue. So while you could use something like the Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains # TC747DC for your 255/55-20 tires, I only recommend the Konig K-Summit Chains # TH02230K77...

It does go on to say, however, that another type of traction device may be used if necessary. I recommend checking your copy of the owner's manual or with a local dealer to see if Chevy consideres cables to be an acceptable alternative.

If you can, there are two options available for you, each...

So for they are working great mor me on our Grand Cherokee. It is important to aligncenter them as I have had friends that didn’t and they had to bend them back in shape.
