Tire Chain Newbee

Posted by Dellbertt on October 20, 2010 at 05:28:14 from (209.172.21.144):

As some remember I've been using my 300U in the winter plowing for many years without chains with few problems. I've decided to give chains a try this year and I don't know a thing about them.

The rears are 13.6 x 28. Most chains I've seen for this size tire are about 115 - 120 inches long by about 15 wide.

A fella here has a good set for sale that is 105 inches, it has the loop but not the hook. Is that too short for my tires.

Is there a chart somewhere that tells the length of chain for the size tire.

I would think spinning in snow is harder on the tire than the wearing of the chains.

Any tips you've learned over the years on installing and distalling would help also.

Thanks,

Dell
