The Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains part # TC2828CAM do not fit a 265/65-17, however we do have tire chains that will work with your Tacoma with that size tire.

I recommend Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains Size 265, part # TH01571265. They have dual sided D shaped links for better traction. They also have a diamond pattern shape, rather than the ladder pattern; which mean the chains will have more surface contact providing better traction starting, stopping, and making turns.

The Konig chains also have integrated rubber tension adjuster to make sure they fit snug on the tire. The kit is going to come with a kneeling mat, gloves, and a reusable carrying case to store your chains.

The Konig chains are going to be rated for on and off road use as well. You will need to check for clearance. The Konig Chains require 16mm of internal clearance (about 5/8"); meaning nothing can be any closer than that to the inside of the tire or it will interfere with the chains.

Another option I recommend for your Tacoma is Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC2526. They have a similar design as the Konig, both will have D shaped links, a diamond pattern, and an integrated rubber tension adjuster. However the Titan chains are approved for on road use only, so where you will be traveling is a factor as well.

I linked videos for you to review of the chains, as well as articles comparing the difference and features of tire chains.

The V-bar style of chain like the part #PWH2828SC is great for heavy snow, but what the V-bars do the best in is ice situations as they break up the ice well. For heavy snow and mud the Mud Service Chains by Glacier like the part #TC2828CAM would…

The factory tire size I'm seeing for a 2018 Ram 2500 is 275/70R18 so you would need the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains for Wide Base and Dual Tires #TC3229. These twist link chains are rated for both on-road and off-road use and come in a twist…

Since your 2023 Chevy Tahoe has clearance issues the only tire chain/traction device I recommend using are the Konig K-Summit Tire Chains #KON24FR as they mount using the lugs nuts on your wheel and the chain only sits on the tread of the tire so…

Tire chain fits can be a bit frustrating since nobody typically wants to be the one to say "yes" to using them since it opens them up to liability if there is a problem. What we can tell you is that Class S tire chains will give you the…
