For your 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, you should only install tire chains on your rear tires. You can check your owners manual for instructions on the best way to use tire chains on truck.

Make sure to use our fitguide to get the best fit for your tires. For tire size 255/65-17, the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains # TC2828 you were looking at are super heavy-duty chains with V-bar links that really bite into the ice. It also good that you're using rubber tensioners like # TCMA2 to make sure that the chains are tight on your wheels as you drive around.

I attached a video below if you want to see the install instructions for these chains.
