Are There Snow Tire Chains Compatible with Both 275/60-20 and 285/75-16 Tire Sizes?

Question:

Will chains for 285x75x16 fit 275x60x20?

The chains for 285x75-16 tires will be quite a bit smaller than the 275/60-20 chains. The 285/75-16 tires will be 32.8 inches diameter with 11.2 inch width and 8.4 inch sidewall. The 275/60-20 tires will be 33 inches diameter with 10.8 inch width and 6.5 inch sidewall. We do not have any chains that fit both these sizes.

I recommend the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners - Square Link # PWE2228SC for better traction, or the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains - 1 Pair # PW2028C for better internal clearance on your 285/75-16 tires.

Then for your 275/60-20 tires I recommend the Titan Chain Diagonal Alloy Cable Snow Tire Chains - Light Truck - 1 Pair # TC2533 for better internal clearance, or the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link - 1 Pair # TC2533 for better traction.
