Question:

What would be your recommendation, given my tire size is 235 55R19, and I would require low-profile [S-rated] and rim-protection?

For your non-standard tire size of 235/55-19 tires on your 2020 Honda CR-V Touring, I recommend the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XG12 Pro # TH01594250. Not only are these Class-S rated, but they also come with self-tensioners that take the headache away from having to adjust the chains on your vehicle after each and every trip. Also, for rim protection, the Konig chains come with anti-scratch nylon bumpers to decrease the probability of chain-to-rim contact. For these particular chains, you need to have at least 12mm of wheel well clearance in order to prevent damage from wheel well components. I went ahead and attached a diagram about how to take this measurement.

As with all tire chains, I recommend that you consult with your Honda owner's manual to make sure that you are abiding by all of the guidelines outlined.
