RUD Chains? Where to get them?

[SirCampalot]

Hi, I'm looking to buy a set of RUD chains... who sells them? Thanks in advance!

Bill Burke used to, but I don't see them on his web site anymore.

So, try here: http://tirechaindealer.com/

Yep, call Thor at Viking Offroad/ Winchline

Yep, call Thor at Viking Offroad/ Winchline

I guess they are really poor about answering their contact form from the website? I contacted them with a question two days ago with no response.
I'd like to pick up a set of the RUD chains for my wife's car at the same time and inquired as to that possibility. No response.
I may drop my dime elsewhere. Maintaining good communication is very high on my list when it comes to buying online.
I do like to support those who support my interests, but they also must offer a good price and service.

Might try these folks:

I've never dealt with them, just found them on the web a couple years ago.
They sell quite a few designs, including a diamond pattern with reinforced links for better grip.

FWIW: When I ran 33" tires I had a full set of RUD chains. Since, several years ago, going to 35" I bought almost identical chains at Les Schwab since RUD didn't make them for 35" tires.

I've been very happy with them considering they are a quick to install/remove chains meant for tight clearances. And their post sale support has been top notch/typical Les Schwab (I broke a connector link and they just swapped me out brand new chains instead of just the part to fix...). Plus they have a money back guarantee, although not useful for me as I knew I wanted chains in the rig regardless, if you don't use them by the chain removal date (typical for mountain states) you get 100% of your money back...

I totally agree. Hugh and Kelly run a great business. :smiley_drive:

I bought mine from Thor at winchline.com. http://winchline.com/tire-chains.html

Its interesting looking at tire chain.com - they stock some serious chains. I find it interesting that they do not recommend the diamond chains for off-road use. The perfered chains are the ladder chains with double cross chains.

I can't find it this time, but when this was first posted I found where they have chains for loaders and skidsteers. They had them for those quarry trucks with the 10' tall tires! Fun to check out.
