If your goal is to use the chains to help you get through the typical winter(s) then the Konig XG12 Pro # TH2004705255 is your all around best choice. They feature D-links which not only provide great traction and grip on snow ice but also allow for a relatively smooth ride. The Konig XG12 Pro Tire Chains install super easily, center themselves automatically on your tire as you drive and come with nylon bumpers to protect your rims. All this is backed up by an unmatched 5 year warranty.

Now, if you're looking for more of an off road application then I suggest you go with the Glacier Mud Service Snow Tire Chains #PWE3227S. These heavier duty chains use twist-link cross chains which are beefier and provide superior grip on snow, ice or even mud and come with a 90 day warranty.

I have included a couple short videos and an FAQ page I recommend you check out.
