Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers about fitment, use, and ordering.

What tire size do these fit?

These fit 255-85-17. Check the tire size printed on your sidewall before ordering.

Are these sold as a pair?

Yes. These car tire chains are priced and sold per pair for two drive tires.

Can I use these on paved roads?

Yes. These are intended for blacktop and paved winter road use. Drive slowly and remove them when roads are clear.

Are these for off-road use?

No. Passenger car chains are for paved-road snow and ice traction, not mud, off-road, or bare-road use.

255-85-17 Class S Diagonal Cable Tire Chains use a 6 mm low-clearance diagonal cable layout for smoother on-road winter traction on cars and minivans. The diagonal pattern gives more continuous tire coverage and better side-to-side stability for paved-road car/minivan use.

These chains are best for paved roads, light to moderate snow, and vehicles with limited wheel-well clearance. They are not designed for deep snow, mud, off-road use, or aggressive/deep-lug tires. Rubber tensioners are recommended when required by the fitment.
