5.0 out of 5 stars truck chains review, April 17, 2010

I purchased these chains for my 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 4X4 after we had two, 20 plus inch snows this winter. I did put them on my rear tires after the snow had somewhat melted to prepare for the next onslaught. I will say they were fairly easy to put on the first time and I expect even easier the next time I need them. You will have to buy the chain tighteners also or the chains will flop around alot. They are very snug with the tighteners in place. I only used them with a dry driveway since we received no more significant snows after having put them on my tires. I will say that they appear to be quite damaging to the driveway itself, especially if driving on clear dry pavement. They will probably be less damaging when there is 6 or more inches of snow on the ground to protect the pavement from the chains. The chains were very easy to remove (less than 5 mins per tire) as opposed to about 15-20 mins per tire to put them on. I expect the next time I put them on to take roughly 10 mins per tire including the tighteners. Read my tightener review for more info.
I use my truck mostly for plowing snow on my 300ft driveway (very steep). So damage to the pavement is an important factor and I will only use the chains when absolutely necessary. I expect they will work very well when driving on public roads, where damage to the pavement is not a concern. But after sliding 200ft backwards down my driveway this year I want to be prepared for anything.

This review is related to a set of Dually Tire Chins also.
This is the first time I have had a problem with something ordered from Amazon, the Tire Chain sizing program on Amazon might not be correct, chains listed on Security Chain Companies sizing guide are incorrect also(at least for my F350 Dually), maybe they were made wrong by the manufacture, or they just list too long of a chain assembly for smaller diameter tires, I don't know. I just know I will have to lift the truck and re-size the(dually)chains by removing links from the assembly. Personally I will buy tire chains from a place that makes it easy to return if they are wrong in the future. I only bought them through the mail because I live in the desert and they don't sell snow chains here. The chains for my front tires seem to fit better, but still a little too much slack. Over all price was good and quality seems OK, just have to re-size the chains, I have the tools so it will be no big deal, but if you don't, then.... ?. Just glad I only need them a few days out of the year, when I go into the mountains.

I purchased these chains for the once or twice a year I travel to Colorado for skiing. I drive a full size 2 wheel drive pickup and these chains really provide the bite necessary for traversing the passes in the packed snow and ice. Rest at ease if you don't have 4 wheel drive... these chains are the ticket! Also, the cam-lock variety makes it easy to properly tension the chains, HIGHLY recommended!
