Hey everyone,
so we are on a trip to Big Bear and its been snowing this weekend. Was looking for some tire chains prior to us coming up here and reading all the suggestions here and everyone seemed to be pointing towards the Thule/Konig XB-16, but for the price of $200+, for someone like me who lives in So. Cal and rarely sees snow, that was too much to put down. So I did some research and found these Titan TC2028 tire cables. They are only $59.95, added a pair chain adjusters (TCMA2) for $10.99 and they shipped and got to me in 4 days. My D is a 2015 with 265/60-18. I put them on yesterday and have been driving around town with them on, and let me tell you, they work great so far, at least for the lighter snow we got the weekend. They provide good traction and have a speed rating of 30mph. They were very easy to put on and have built in tension clamp, which, I recommend you use one of the arms of the rubber chain adjusters to hold it in place, as I found it came loose after my first drive for some reason. When I hooked it with the adjuster, no issues. I have not had any clearance issues with the brake line as these are made for lower clearance. One of the pictures is of the back of the tire, you can see, plenty of room. Anyways, just wanted to let you all know about these in case you need something for lighter use. If you live in someplace where it constantly snows or freezes, Im not sure how these will do, but for the price, its a good deal. Pictures added.
