Should Tire Cables Install on Front or Rear Axle of 2019 Toyota 4Runner
Question:
When I install the PW3027C on my 4Runner 2019 in the front wheel as video showed, I see the inner chain is very close to the part of the car. Would you recommend to put the chain in the rear wheel?

Helpful Expert Reply:
With tire chains/cables it's recommended to install them on the main drive wheels of the vehicle if only one set is to be used. For your 2019 4Runner that is either AWD or RWD this most likely would be the rear axle but you'd want to check owners manual for the tire chain restrictions/guidelines.
We actually had the chance to install the # PW3027C on the front axle of a 2017 4Runner (see attached install video) and we found that it fit well.
