Recommended Tire Cables and Chains for a 315/70R17 Tire
Question:
I am needing snow cables to fit my 315/70R17. Would you be able to point me to a couple options? Not against snow chains but preference is for cables

We do have a set of tire cables that fit your 315/70R17 tires.
They're the Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern - Steel Rollers, part # TC3031. The steel rollers provide a very smooth ride and they have a maximum speed rating of 30 mph. I've linked to a video review of these cables for you to look at.
I recommend getting the cable tighteners mentioned in the video as tire cables can lose some of their efficacy if they're too loose. They are part # TCMA2.
With regards to cables vs. chains, I do suggest going with chains instead since they are much more durable and reliable. It's a wiser investment. For your tires, we have the Glacier Twist Link Snow Tire Chains with Cam Tighteners, part # PWH2226SC. They're made for on-road applications and are designed for highway use. I've linked to a video review for these as well.
