An improved ramp for facilitating the application of snow chains to the outer tire of a dual tire configuration of a semi truck, or other dual wheeled vehicle. The ramp has a front apron that is close to and parallel to the ground. The front apron allows for the tire to drive on to the apron without pushing the ramp out from under the tire. The tire then travels up an incline section to a top, supporting surface. The bottom of the ramp has a series of adjustable friction enhancing projections that increase friction between the bottom of the ramp and the ground. The friction enhancing projections are adjustable in length, allowing for a user to make the projections longer beneath the supporting surface, further facilitating driving the tire onto the ramp.
