Loaner chains fell between huge tire lugs and were only 50% effective. Got new chains w/cross link and now they ride out of lugs.

I've never actually had to use chains with the TJ, even in crazy snow. I am running AT tires though as oppose to MTs.
 
Apparently there are companies that make chains for 35” tires and larger.

Peerless seems to have a good selection.
Tirechain.com carries a bunch of them. Oddly they list them for 35x12.5R17 but not 35x12.5R15.

I might pick up a set once I get new tires. I’ve used them plenty of times on a 2wd and they make a huge difference. Even better than studded winter tires. And they help you stop, not just go.
