Recommended Tire Chains for a 2013 Toyota 4Runner 255/70-R17 Tires
Question:
Tire size 255 70/R17 calls for item 2524 which has 5.5mm chains. Manual states 5mm chains. Does .5mm matter that much?
asked by: Chris T
Expert Reply:
According to your owner's manual, the maximum side and cross chain diameter when using a set of snow tires on your 2013 Toyota 4Runner is 5mm. The Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC2524 has a link thickness of 5.5mm therefore, I cannot recommend you use them on the 255/70-R17 tires.
The extra .5mm could create clearance issues that would interfere with your vehicle's braking and suspension components. Instead, I recommend using the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC2321 which only have a link diameter of 3.7mm.
You will also want to review your vehicle's owner's manual for all other tire chain requirements. I have attached a review video of these tire chains for you as well.
