The Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern - Steel Rollers - 1 Pair # TC2028 are a confirmed fit for your 265/70R17 tires on your 2017 GMC 2500 HD 4x4. Then you will use tensioners like the Glacier Multi-Arm Rubber Adjusters - Light-Truck Chains - 15" to 18" Rims - 1 Pair # PW105 or # PW100 which will work well with these cable chains.

Most of the time the manufacturer suggests only using on the rear tires, but your owner's manual will outline proper use. These cables are class S compatible for minimum clearances required by the manufacturer.
