Product Description

*Chains are refundable. Please be sure to read our returns policy. With any tire chains retailer, fitment for the indicated tire sizes is likely, but not always a match. This is due to occasional differences between how tire manufacturers measure the dimensions of their tires. Accordingly, the nominal sizes they designate on their sidewalls may be the same across manufacturers, but for tires that are significantly different in actual size.

Overview
These most popular and easy-to-install truck tire chains are made for 4WD, 2WD and AWD pickups, SUVs and vans. Proven in the field by truck "gearheads," driving professionals and trainers such as Bill Burke, Overland Journal and Viking Offroad, these German-engineered chains are respected by people in the know as a superior choice. The details of why these chains are a better choice can be read by clicking the text expansion link at the bottom: "RUD GRIP 4X4 TIRE CHAINS INFO."

Value: Excellent Chains for a Great Price
Check the buzz in online forums. Do a Google search for "best 4x4 tire chains" and you will find RUD chains mentioned among the best. Notice, however, the large price difference you'll find between RUD chains and the other "best chains." Here at Chain STOP you're getting chains of equal or better value than those you'll see hyped up on top 10 lists that "cozy up" to Amazon and high-priced retailers. While of equal or better value, our chains are consistently priced at a fraction of the others, especially when you purchase two or more pairs. The chains we sell are priced relatively low, but they are high-quality German-engineered chains NOT to be confused with the very cheap imitations that will break after a few uses.

Put the Word Out
Get the chains and once you see the quality, service and value you received, don't leave your family and friends "in the cold"....put the word out that Chain STOP offers the real deal at an excellent price.

Purchasing Details
Above, there are several options required to select to complete your purchase. One of these options is your choice of promotional offers for discounts when you purchase tire chain accessories with your tire chains. The kits include accessories recommended for corresponding quantities of pairs of chains (e.g., recommended you buy kit 1 for 1 pair of tire chains, kit 2 for 2 pairs, etc.). Below, please see the brief explanation for each option. If you have any questions, please call us at 515-897-1789 or e-mail us at cs@chainstop.com.

Select your tire size. If you do not see your tire size in the drop-down list, please click ChainSTOP.com's Contact Us link and ask whether we have your chain size available.

Bulk Pricing
One pair of Grip 4x4 chains retails at $153.49. Get $35 OFF your purchase of each pair when you buy two pairs or more.

Promotion

NOTE: Kit includes the following items in the quantities shown in the chart above.

Kit Item #1: Shoe Chains with Ruck Sack (Bergsteiger)

If you've ever tried walking on packed snow or icy ground, you know it can be a little difficult and sometimes even dangerous. RUD's Bergsteiger shoe chains are Chain STOP's top choice for outdoor shoe traction.  Whether on snow or ice, these bad boys will give you a whole lot of grip!

Kit Item #2: Replacement Tensioning Hooks
The Grip 4x4s are strong, but in the uncommon instance that the rubber on a hook snaps, extra tensioning hooks are an inexpensive backup to have.
pic-tensioning-hook-rud-grip-4x4-tire-chains-chainstop-3.gif


Kit Item #3: Repair Links
Repair links also serve as backup in the uncommon instances of a chain link breaking or when you simply need to tighten chains that are a little big.

Shoe Size 1 & Shoe Size 2
The "Shoe Size" options are ONLY FOR KITS. If you only want to buy snow chains, simply select "None" in the shoe size drop-down menus. If you indicate a shoe size when you have not indicated that you want one of the kits, you will only receive tire chains.

Quantity
Your selection of a quantity of 1 means you are buying 1 of the promotional option that you selected. Your selection of a quantity of 2 means you are buying 2 of the promotional option you selected. Etc.

If you want 2 pairs of chains, but only 1 kit, simply select a quantity of 1 pair of the tire chain size that fits your tire, then select 1 kit and indicate shoe sizes for your shoe chains. Then, add to cart. Next, click the "continue shopping" link. This will enable you to return to the product page to select and add to cart your 2nd pair of tire chains without having to buy a 2nd kit.

IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE: If your purchase is for a 4-wheel drive or all wheel drive vehicle, professional driving trainers (e.g., Bill Burke and Harald Pietschmann) strongly recommend the use of chains on all four tires. If you end up buying only one pair for a 4-wheel drive anyway, then consider strategic placement as described in detail by Harald PietschmannIf you buy one pair for a 2-wheel drive, then put your chains on the tires that are on the drive axle.


When you reach checkout, please know that the shipping and handling price reflects the relatively heavy weight of the package(s).

Fitment Note
Before purchasing tire chains, please be sure to check with your vehicle manufacturer/owner's manual as to whether your vehicle can have tire chains installed and if so, what the clearance requirements are. This will help you avoid damaging your vehicle.

NOTE Re. Off Road Application
While these are labeled "Grip 4x4" chains, please know that care must be taken to not push the chains' limits. RUD states, "Chains are designed to aid in traction on snow and ice. They are not designed for mud, logs, or rocks, which could damage the snow chain. Please apply common sense."

Chain STOP takes this to mean that driving on snow-covered "off road" trails where logs and rocks may be concealed could put your chains at risk of breaking and subsequently damaging other parts of your vehicle. While these chains are stronger and offer better traction than the average chains, please exercise great care to not drive over objects that can break your chains.

Additional Limitation for Chain Application

These chains are designed to sustain the GVWR indicated by vehicle manufacturers of average SUVs and pickups, not those that are in the heavier ranges. Improper uses (i.e., weight and terrain extremes) that push the resistance limits of these chains are likely to break them and could consequently result in damage to your vehicle and other dangerous consequences like a road collision/accident. Please exercise great caution and use them with care.

 

Refunds
Rest assured that, unlike brick and mortar stores, we DO accept returns if your tire chains do not fit. If your chains are a little to big, one option may be to try RUD's instructions for shortening the chains with repair links. Alternatively, we can give you a full refund on the price you paid for the chains. Please read our complete refund policy before purchasing.

 

Fitment Exceptions

In an effort to reduce your hassle of having to return chains that do not fit your tires as expected, we are beginning to list tires with respective tire sizes and tire chain sizes that do not fit. Please check below to see if we have identified tires that are larger or smaller than expected:

 

Chain Size Tire Brand Model Size Problem Solution
2532 Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure 275/70R18 Tires too large (chains too small) Exchange for 2533
2532 Michelin LTX AT2 275/65R20 Tires too large (chains too small) Exchange for 2533
2532 Michelin LTX AT2 275/70R18 Tires too large (chains too small) Exchange for 2533

  3. Great Chains 5 Star Review

    I like the service I got with Chain Stop, and chains are excellent quality.


  4. The best service and great products 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 6th Jan 2014

    Alvin bends over backwards to make the customer happy!

    As there was only one pair of Rud chains left in my size I got one pair of Rud and one pair of Olympia and here are my initial impressions:

    I installed the Rud chains first. I found the directions a little confusing and they said things like "put the chain through the lock like this..." and then the demonstration picture was too small to make out. I was actually better off ignoring the directions and figuring it out for myself. They went on without much difficulty. It would have been best to practice installing in nice weather but I didn't have that option as it was 8 degrees and snowing and I needed them!

    The Olympia chains did not come with directions but the bag did list which size tires they would fit (this was something I meant to ask but forgot) and I am very glad to have this information as I expect to have the chains longer than the car. The Olympia chains were a little harder to put on than the Rud chains, more of a traditional spread them out and drive onto them approach but I think that they are more heavy duty and the method of attaching them will prove more long lasting than the Rud chains.

    Given the fact that I will be leaving the chains on the car all of the time I am sure that I will eventually be replacing the rubber tighteners with more permanent hardware.

    For my use I think that the Olympia chains are better. If I wanted a chain that I could quickly take on and off for running up to the ski slopes or something like that I'm sure the Rud would be the way to go. Anyway you cut it I think I am in much better shape than I was yesterday in terms of being able to navigate my rugged Montana property in all weather and deliver hay to the animals. Now that I know they work like a champ in snow and on ice I am anxious to try them in mud.


  5. The verdict is not out yet for me 3 Star Review

    Posted by on 5th Jan 2014

    I don't rate products so soon normally, but the guys at chain stop asked me that if I liked anything about my purchase experience to let people know. I bought at this store only because me and my friend were taking our wives on a weekend trip to their cabin, and he told me to check out Chain STOP. The product looks great and has done good so far, but I like to try things out for much longer before I can confidently say it's good. My friend told me about this store and that they back their chains. They take returns if the product does not fit and it is returned by a certain time. That made me feel better about buying without trying on the chains first. I would had to pay shipping, though, but I didn't have to return because the chains did fit.

    I review this product because I like the service I got here. Friendly and easy to communicate. Fast shipping, and store is easy to use and find what I want.


  6. I like these chains with reservation 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 5th Jan 2014

    Yes, they have great traction, they go on fast, and they're not that expensive (haven't had these long so I can't comment yet on durability). What I don't like about these is that tension hook...makes me a little nervous, so I got a few spares just in case one of them eventually snaps. I'm told the quick connect cable is also the weakest point in the system, but I would think the outer blue chain or the yellow tension chain is even weaker than that.

    Anyway, these are supposed to be made for offroad use, so I'm gonna trust it for now because so many people online say good things about these chains, and I haven't seen anything about breakage issues.


  7. The Customer Service I Received 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 4th Jan 2014

    My chains were lost, it seemed. The post office had not delivered pm the expected delivery date. I tried to contact them, but it was too long a wait. I called Chain StOp to have them handle it instead. They got back to me within minutes by e-mail and told me they would work it out. They contacted the post office, figured out what was going on, and then explained to me that the post office was already redelivering it. Box came really banged up and thrashed as I might expect a post office flat rate box to be with such a heavy item inside, but post office claims that those boxes should be able to hold up to 70 Lbs! Gimme a break! This experience with the post office (and quite a few other experiences with different kinds of shipments) left a bad taste in my mouth for their service. A little upset that my chains could have been damaged (I didn't want to wast time having to inspect the chains for possible damage the post office could have caused), I told Chain stop to just refund my money. They were on top of it....They did express their interest in keeping me as a customer, but asked no further questions, immediately refunded my money, and e-mailed me a return shipping label within an hour.

    Are you kidding me? These guys are champs! Just for that, I stuck with them (the shipping snafu had nothing to do with them anyway...it was the post office). I REALLY appreciate service like that, plus these business is an upstart sole proprietorship by a guy named Alvin...not some sort of big corporation like Amazon or eBay with all sorts of money to throw around.

    Chain Stop helped me in every way they could, so I'm returning the favor to spread the word about the quality of service they offer so you can know to be confident in purchasing with with them. They backed their product and service for me 100%...TOP NOTCH, FIVE STARS!!!
