Dually Tire Chain Recommendation for Tire Size 245/75-17

Question:

Thank you very much! I have one more question: How much do each of those two sets of chains weigh? We want the lightest we can get.

We have dually tire chain setups for your tire size of 245/75-17 like the Titan Twist Link set part # TC4231 which will work really well, but since cable setups are more designed for emergency use they aren't typically used on heavier duty vehicles like duallys. They don't typically last very long so I wouldn't recommend that route for yours with a cab over camper.

The twist link setup I mentioned is a great choice if you want a smoother ride quality and the V-bars part # TC4831 are great for icy conditions as the V-bars break up the ice well.

The part # TC4231 weighs 25 lbs per individual set. The part # TC4831CAM weighs a little more at 29 lb per set. Chains are made from heavy steel and there really isn't a great way to make a light set that still works well and won't wear out quickly.
