A 5/16" chain should be plenty or you could go with a 3/8". Most stock chains come with hooks and are anywhere from 12 to 20 feet long. Take a piece of rope and "mock" chaining down your tractor then measure it's length to be sure. Be sure to spend good money on binders! There are very cheap ones out there that are bad! You sure don't want your investment coming off your trailer. If you have a truck dealer in your area(freightliner...kenworth...peterbuilt) they usually sell good quality chains and binders that are DOT certified. Good luck.
