Z type the best of the cable types.
Z Tread superior to the parallel cable type. I saw many people struggle up hills with the parallel type, especially with little to no snow. The Z type chains eliminate the ball bearing effect. Worked great in all conditions. Used then for a Lake Tahoe weekend in snow and ice and worked great. Very easy to install in snowy/ windy conditions. I did practice once in the garage first. Bring plastic or cardboard for the ground. It took my 15-year old daughter and I 5 minutes per wheel on and 2 minutes per wheel off. The rubber tensioners kept them tight as a drum. Product advertised as used, but appeared to never be installed.
