In order to get the correct snow tire chains for a 2021 Toyota Tacoma you'll need to what size tires are on the truck currently. If you're not sure, just take a look at the sidewall of the tire for the size. The Konig Self-Tensioning Tire Chains are a great option due to not only their performance but also the ease of installation. The chains have a diamond pattern which is great for providing a smooth ride, there are nylon bumper to protect your wheels, and the chains have integrated tighteners so there will be no further adjustments needed after the initial install. The part # th2004705265 is a fit for the following sizes; 265/70-16, 265/60-18, and 265/65-17. If you have a different size please just let me know what that is and I'd be happy to confirm fit of another option.

Please note, the self-tensioning mechanism is a premium feature so most chains with this are not very economical. That said, they are worth the extra cost if you actually intend to use the chains so I do recommend them if your budget allows for it.
