Expert Reply:

For your 175/70-13 tires the best choice is the Titan Chain # TC1520 chains with square links in diamond pattern for maximum traction. If your Owner's Manual recommends only using Class-S low profile chains these will meet that requirement as well.

I also recommend the Glacier Rubber Adjusters, # PW100, for easier installation and a better fit. I have included a video review of these adjusters for reference.

I have also included a link to all of the tire chains that will fit a 175/70-13 tire size, as well as a link to our tire chain FAQ article for reference. I recommend checking your vehicle owners manual to determine if tire chains can be used and if there are any restrictions or recommendations from the vehicle manufacturer.
