Class “S” Designation

SAE Class “S” tire chains are designed for use on T1N 2001-2006 Sprinter Van with restricted wheel well clearance. Certain newer cars, vans and small trucks, especially those with large, aftermarket tires, may require Class “S” chains.

SAE Class S Clearances

These chains will fit your T1N 2001-2006 Sprinter Van tires provided there is both:

  • A – a minimum of 1.46″ (37 mm) between the top of the tire tread and the wheel well
  • B – at least 0.59″ (15 mm) between the tire’s sidewall and the T1N 2001-2006 Sprinter Van itself.
