Question:
Wondering if I can use these chains on my 2006 Volvo XC90 AWD. I am looking for the cheapest option of chains for this vehicle since we really wont need them very often, if ever, but good to carry in case we do. Thanks.

You will want to check your owners manual or with the Volvo dealer to determine if you can use snow tire chains on your 2006 Volvo XC90 AWD, or if there are any limitations. Some Volvo all-wheel drive cars may limit snow chains to the front wheels only.
The Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part # PW1046, that you have referenced, will fit the 235/65-17 tire size. This is the tire size we show as factory on your 2006 Volvo XC90 AWD.
If you can use these snow chains on your vehicle, I would also recommend the Glacier Rubber Adjusters, part # PW100, for the snow chains. These adjusters will provide constant tension on the chains for a tight, secure fit around the tire.
I am including a link to a FAQ page on snow tire chains.
