If I were in the market for new ones, I'd start at:

www.tirechains.com

I agree with George.. the cable chains are less than desirable. I suppose to get you through an enforced chain law situation, they might be ok. But, the last set of those I had were absolutely miserable to install, and they broke during first use.

Most important.. make sure they are installed right and tight. Really sucks to have one come off, because it always happens at the worse possible time and place. I had one slip off/break/wrap around the axle on my 240, quite effectively severing the brake line and shearing off the bleed valve... you don't want that to happen in a 122 with single circuit brakes!
