size of chains for lugs

I just ordered carlisle Tru Power lugs for my cub, 23x10.5x12, will I need bigger chains or will standard chains for that size tire fit. Thanks for any help

You will definitely need bigger chains. I did for mine!

You actually get better traction ( on snow and ice ) with turfs and chains. The flatter footprint of the turfs is why.

As far as your original question, the chains will probably fit with minor adjustment. If you end up needing a piece of tire chain ( a few links ), I have a short piece of extra tire chain. :beerchug:

My chains fit fine over either tire. But I agree with Jeff! Better off with chains on the turfs!
