It all comes down to tire size. standard tire sizes for the stock 2005 Ford F350 are 245/75-17, 265/70-17, 275/65-18 and 275/70-18. If you have one of these sizes 245/75-17, 265/70-17 or 275/65-18 you can use these V-Bar Chains # TC2828CAM if you needed superior traction and the twist link chains # TC2228CAM if you needed a less aggressive chain. If you have this tire size 275/70-18 here are the aggressive twist link chains # TC3829 and the twist link # TC3229CAM for something in the middle.

If for some reason you do not have any of these tire sizes, get the size off the sidewall of your F350 and put the information in our tire fit guide to find your options.

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 be…

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…
