Go on several web sites and check which tire is best for you. That is how I found out which one was best for my Class B camper.

I use these tires all year long. They are excellent on highway and off Road. They have always been a quiet tire. I had these tires on my GMC Canyon first and they were great. Now I run them on a GMC Sierra and they're great on it too. I would recommend them to anyone for highway and off-road use snow, dry, or rain.

My guess is these chains will fit if you are prepared to cut them to fit the size of you wheel... I bought them to improve the traction of my Ariens 5520 snowblower... the tire size on my snowblower is 13x4.00-6 which is among the sizes these chains are specified. To make the chains fit properly I had to cut off five links of length (including two cross members). This is no big deal, but if you do not have a bolt cutter, it will probably be very challenging...I also bought the QG20030 (small) chain tightener but it also was too big for my 13 inch wheel...so I used only the (orange) hooks with a small bungee cord and that solved the problem...

Not sure if QG3229 is the size for your tires. When I did my research it was pretty well laid out on which chain would fit which tire size. I would say to go to the website and double check the sizes. This is what I did, and they fit just fine.

Your lucky, I only get 11.2 mpg. I haven't tried the performance programming yet. I am only using the tire size setting for my FX4. Let me know what you get for mileage.

I did. They are on my 99 ranger 4x4 and I live in mn. The tires do really well on snow and ice and road noise is almost non existant. I am very happy with them.

There is a factory website with tire size compatability guide. See the following link to determine which chains you need.http://www.scc-chain.com/tire-chain-finder/traction/tirechains

My tires have fairly deep lugs also. There is plenty of adjustment. Go for it! They are very good chains.

The best dang tire you can buy for a truck weighing more than 8k lbs and needing great off road capabilities. Just curious. Why do you care about the sidewalls? Worried about curbs or bullets? lol.

I purchased WS1705 chains and could barely get them to fit on my P245/55R19 tires. I had to jack up the car and make sure every bit of slack was removed. This was done in my dry driveway. I hope I never have to do it in the snow on the road. Although this is not a direct answer to your question I hope it is useful.

Hi Bart. Your application has more to do with whether you are driving in ice vs snow, and plowing vs towing vs just driving. For the size - go to security chain corp's web site and use their size lookup tool. I use a v bar chain on all 4 wheels for plowing snow over ice. If u r not plowing then the v bar is probably too aggressive. Each situation is different, so you might need to try some different designs until you find what is best for you.

I had the same problem and found out I had the wrong size chains. I needed them immediately so I had to buy from a local dealer. Amazon was great and took back the ones that did not fit. I followed the sizing instructions on Amazon website and they were still to small for my tires.

I have a set of security tire chains, QG 3229 CAM, type DH CAM. The bag they came in list tire sizes as: 285/55-20; LT 285/75-16; LT 305/65-17; 275/55-20; 285/70-17; 295/60-20; 315/70-16; 275/60-20; LT 285/70-17; and LT 295/75-16. I run my set on a 06 Ford F-250 super duty 4X4 that has LT 275/70R-18 tires, load range E. They fit good on it. The chains are rather heavy, about twice the weight as my old set. Security has a web site that I used to pick the right size chain. Have you tried it?

i have found that unless you're up in the mountains in deep snow, chains are a pain. they don't travel well on clear roads, so they are awkward if you have some good highway miles then off onto smaller snow-covered roads. in they end i found it better to fork out the extra bucks and get studded tires put on in the winter months.

HelloWhat I did...I google "trailer tire" and compared the answer with the tire I had at home. I hope this is helpful.

The ones I purchased are on Carlisle turf-saver tires and they worked great this past week when we had a foot of snow. They performed just as well as the chains I used last winter but don't leave any marks like the metal chains did.
