Mud Flaps and Tire Chains

[Tabor OBX]

Two questions: 1) Does anyone know who sells mud flaps for a 2 door with step rails? And, 2) what type and brand of chains (P255/70R18 tires 32") would you recommend for on-road ice and snow?

1. I like the Mabett mud flaps I have.

2. I use Peerless Z-chains. https://peerlesschain.com/products/super-z6#19552
Note owners manual says rear tires only.
Note owners manual says you’ll probably nick and scratch the rims if you have 18’s. I accept this as an unfortunate possibility if it comes to actual use.

Here’s a good video comparing alternatives:

That’s out of a 1969 Ford owners manual.

I got disposable chains “just in case”, but I fully recognize they won’t really do a lot and are one-use-only. It makes me legal carrying chains for where I live. I wouldn’t try to off-road or daily use these things

I have weathertec mud flaps - nothing to report on them. They work, they installed ok, they are not too flashy, but I probably overpaid for what I got

Those actually work pretty well. When I was a UPS delivery driver we had a few of those, I think like three, in the trucks and used them a few times. They did indeed get me unstuck. I was surprised.
