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.

Tire Size
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

  1. Research Chains, Then See What You Started With 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 16th Dec 2013

    Want some advice on buying chains? Leave this store right now if you haven't done your research. Check the forums. See the pricing on other websites. Read the reviews for different types of tire chains. Research your own clearance requirements with your truck's manufacturer (or find it in the owner's manual). Inventory the pros and cons of all the different kinds of chains you've read about. Then come back here and realize you started in the right spot for a great deal with professionals that will set you up with the right set of chains (unless your clearance requirements don't work with "S" clearance).


  2. You Can't go Wrong with These Grip 4x4s 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 16th Dec 2013

    What I'm about to say is nothing new. It only confirms what you've read here in these reviews and other places online. These chains are:
    1. Quick and easy to put on
    2. Strong and long-lasting
    3. Affordable
    4. A great value

    I've tested them on my own rigs and to my own surprise, I couldn't find anything wrong to say about them, and I think the price for what these chains do had a lot to do with it. Sure, there are easier chains available to put on, but check the price of those chains and you'll know what I'm saying. These truck chains are a very good buy.

    I also liked that this store will refund your money if you find out that they don't actually fit when you try them on. You cover the cost of return shipping, but that's totally fair, since I understand that different tire manufacturers' nominal sizes can vary in actuality.


  3. good stuff 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 15th Dec 2013

    Easy install looks good


  4. Needed a Good Pair of Tire Chains for My Truck. Got these. 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 15th Dec 2013

    I was heading through a pass last year where the roads are slick with ice. I wasn't trusting the cable chains that came with my truck, so I asked around about better chains and my friends came up with the Grips. I gotta say: no issues so far. Chain STOP says the square links may help to bite into the ice a little bit more. However it works, it's what I needed for my truck.


  5. The Right Investment for My Family 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 14th Dec 2013

    I have a wife and two kids (2 and 5). I'm good with my hands, but sometimes, my wife who isn't really handy takes our SUV on errands round about town with our two boys in the back. She's not interested in having to patiently figure out how to get a set of chains on our truck while our two anxious sons are waiting on her. She needs to get it done quick and be on her way.

    You will find in your research that there are a few good solutions online for this, except those other solutions are pretty steep on price. The Grips are quick, good quality so they won't easily bust on you while you need them most, and just as important - they sell here at a reasonable price that a lot of us regular people can afford.


  6. Best Chains I've Had 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 14th Dec 2013

    OK, so I've only had one pair of chains, and that's this pair... : )

    BUT, these chains have dun me right. Cutting through ice and snow, like it ain't nuttin', me and my truck are pretty impressed with our winter driving skills...Ok, these chians get sum ofthe cretdit. B4 grip 4xs, i was slippin' n' slidin when i moved to my new hood. hadn't driven in the snow much before, so i didn't have any chanis. Got these cause a buddy told me about em. haven't slipped since.


  7. RUD Grip 4x4 Keeps it RRRREEEAL!!! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 12th Dec 2013

    When I bought a couple of pairs two years ago, I didn't think these chains would go some of the places I do when I'm 4xing. I've tried this one trail a few times without much luck - too many rocks and ice too thick and slippery to get very far. I tried steel cable chains and regular chains - the kind that lay across the width of your tire from left to right. Those were sort of OK for a bit, but my truck slipped a little much from side to side for me to feel comfortable.

    Last year, I tried these RUD Grips. Couldn't believe how far I got with these on there. Chain STOP says it's cause of the way the links are laid out in all sorts of directions all over the tire instead of just from left to right.

    Whatever it is, they work.


  8. These Chains are OK 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 12th Dec 2013

    I don't like the price. That said, these chains are alright. They've gotten me from point A to point B without much hassle or fuss, and I've been using these round about town for the last few years since back in the day when I picked up my first set with Viking Offroad.

    Still, if RUD could only lower its pricing, I'd love them that much more.
