The V-bar style of tire chain is the best for icy conditions like what you mentioned. Their design goes in and breaks up the ice giving you better traction. So for your tire size of 265/70-17 you'd want the part # PWH2828SC which will work great for icy gravel.

I attached an install video for this chain set on a similar GM truck as yours for you to check out as well.
