I can't find chains for my 7-12 R4 front tires. I've looked on all the chain suppliers web sites that I can find. Has anyone installed chains on these tires and if so can you let me know where you bought them? Or if you made them what size did you start with before you sized them.

You can try BB chain (they are on the web). I bought front chains for my 2910 with R4s HOWEVER......

The dealer said not to use them on the front. Something about the extra traction stressing the front end.

Also, you will find there is VERY little clearance between the wheels and the steering knuckle. You will need to reverse the wheels I think to make it work.

I ended up returning the chains and just using rears.
