Due to the aggressive tread pattern on your 285/60-20 tires on your 2019 Ram 2500, you'll want to use a wide-base type tire chain that adds a little extra space to accommodate the tread pattern on an off-road style tire.

For good all-around traction, I'd recommend the Titan twist-link chains, part # TC3229CAM. This is a great choice for snow and mud, but if you'll be traveling frequently in very icy areas, these might not be the best choice.

For excellent traction in icy conditions, the Titan # TC3829CAM V-Bar link chains would be a better choice. The V-Bars will get a really good bite on ice for outstanding traction.

Either chain incudes cam tighteners for a secure fit, but chain adjusters such as # TCMA2 are also recommended.

I've linked to product videos for the items I recommended.
