Important Fit Notes

Match the Tire Sidewall

Use the tire size printed on the tire sidewall. Vehicle year, make, and model are not enough because tire sizes can vary by trim, wheel package, and aftermarket tires.

Check Clearance

Before driving with chains, check clearance around suspension, brake lines, fenders, body panels, and steering parts.

Deep-Lug Tires Can Fit Differently

Aggressive tread, deep lugs, oversized tires, and Load Range E truck tires can affect tire chain fit. Test fit before the storm or before heading off-road.

Re-Tighten After Moving

After installing tire chains, drive a short distance and re-tighten. Chains settle into the tire tread after the first movement.
