Can these be used with snow tires? Or is there a different type of Z chains designed for snow tires? concerned tire damage w/ bigger tread

Absolutely ! I have used several different applications of the Z chains both automotive and light truck.... With both; all season and winter tires. I have never experienced tire or wheel damage. The only difference I have experienced with the Super Z6 is it takes a little more patience during installation....knowing where to tug and pull......they fit closely so there is not a lot of "extra" slack to help with installation. Still takes less than 10 min. to install !

I have a 4x4 diesel with 285/75R16 tires and the chains fit with room to spare for a wider tire that you have. I have not had a chance to actually drive on them seeing as how I have 4x4 with an aggressive tread pattern for the snow.

These will work just find, but make sure you have installed these on your tires before you leave your driveway as these chains are not the easiest to put on.

They have good tread but I've never used them in snow or on ice. I think the design would be as good as any i've seen for those conditions.

My tires are 4. 10/3.50x4 and the chains fit well with some slack. There are a couple of extra links so they could accommodate a slightly larger tire. On the packaging there are 2 sizes listed: 4. 10/3.50x4 and 3. 40/3.00x5. My guess is these will not fit your tire size.

I take size 10 and I think I bought Large. However, I have gone back to Yak Traks because the rivets connecting chain to rubber broke really quickly. This might be a function of my use because I used them for traction while snowblowing rather than conventional walking. I imagine pushing and pulling snowblowers up hills puts some strain on the connection.

I us them on 20x9s on my Suburban, they work fine. Don't know about the offset, if the wheels are for that vehicle there should be no problem with the tires. Speedo might have changed by 1mph at 60. Still good after years of warm weather driving, but I use dedicated snow tires on original wheels in the winter. Probably have 50K miles on them and lots of tread left, but I have not really kept close track of which tires have how much mileage.

I have used tbese tires last years snow removal. They are awesoe great traction. However li m e any tire weight is the key. Tires are great in every seaso. This is my first season wowing grass with them and there awesoe.

It's the tire size that matters, not the size of the snowblower. They will fit tires 1.3 x 5.00-6.

They work extremely well in snow. In ice, you'll need to fit them with chains and maybe load them......

I just went out in my 8 below zero garage and checked. The rims are plastic, and the tires are "balloon tires" not plastic wheels; they have air valves for refilling if they happen to get low. I still have 4-5 feet of snow on the ground, and I may not get the opportunity to use my spreader until May.Bob-North Smithfield, RI

Thank you for considering AMC Parts Store for your snow blower parts. Chain sizes directly correspond to the numbers on the sides of the tire. Please match these numbers in order to obtain the chains that will fit your tires.

You would be better off with a tire with more tread. These tires are slicks for the most part with light tread on the sidewalls. I would consider cyclecross style tires or something that has a tread pattern designed for the winter.

Hi Jeff, I don't have a lot of experience with these tires in the snow. They are on my Daughter's car who is away at school and the car has not been out in the snow this year.Sorry I could not be more help.

Yes. I am using them on an Ariens snow thrower that has that exact size of tire.

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.
