Off Road Tire Chains for 1989 Chevy Suburban
Question:
Why does the All Info tab have On Road Only listed? Is there a reason these chains should not be used off road?
asked by: John P
Expert Reply:
According to Titan Chain, the # TC2221CAM are not designed for off-road use due to the composition of the steel used to manufacture the chain links.
For on and off road use, the Titan # TC2221 twist link chains would be a better choice. For better snow and ice traction for on or off road, the V-bar links used on # TC2821 will really bite into the ice and provide great traction. Also recommended are adjusters like # TCOA2 which will keep the chains tightly in place on the tire.
The chains I mentioned are compatible with the 235/85-16 stock tire size on your Suburban.
