Note: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if chains might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.


The Konig CB-12 tire chains are great all-purpose, winter weather chains. If you live in an area where you're likely to get periodic snow and ice, these Konig chains are perfect because they're durable, easy to mount, and give you constant traction - and they're lightweight and compact, so they store in your vehicle nicely too. If you're more likely to see seriously icy conditions, you may want a chain with V-bar links that can really bite into the ice to give you maximum traction.


These chains are among the easiest and fastest to install because they have built-in tensioners that you can just pull taut to adjust the fit. These tensioners allow the chains to fit your tires, no matter the profile or wear pattern. And because the tensioners are built-in, you never have to worry about losing them like you might with other chains on the market.


Class S Designation

SAE Class S tire chains are designed for use on passenger vehicles with restricted wheel-well clearance. Most newer cars, vans, and small trucks - especially those with large aftermarket tires - will require Class S chains. If you're unsure about the class of your vehicle, consult your vehicle's owner's manual.

SAE Class S Clearance Diagram

These chains will fit your tires provided there is both:

  • A - a minimum of 1.46" (37 mm) between the top of the tire tread and the wheel well
  • B - at least 0.59" (15 mm) between the tire's sidewall and the vehicle

Confirming Your Fit

If you know your tire size, you may think you won't need to test fit your new chains. But there are a lot of variables that can affect whether chains will fit your specific tires, including your tire type, the amount of air pressure in the tire, the amount of tread wear, and the tire manufacturer. You'll also need to know how much clearance is in your wheel well, which you can determine by measuring from your tire tread to the sidewall of the wheel well.


We recommend that you order chains as early in the season as possible to give yourself plenty of time to test fit the chains and reorder if needed. This way, you won't be stuck out in the cold later with snow chains that don't fit.


You can test fit these chains in your garage or driveway, but you'll want to wait until there's snow on the ground to actually drive with them. Likewise, if you're out in the snow and come across bare pavement, youll want to pull over and remove the chains. Even these low-profile chains can cause damage to the bare pavement, your garage floor, or your vehicle if they break from the wear of riding on a harsh surface.


Installing Tire Chains

Installing these chains is incredibly simple.


Lay chains on the ground to get all the tangles out

1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks in the chains.


Connect the ends of the blue cable

2. Slide the chain behind the tire and connect the ends of the blue cable, which will sit behind the tire.


Connect the hook and link in front of the tire

3. Around front, connect the red hook to the red link.


Feed tensioning chain through clip

4. At the bottom of the tire, feed the tensioning chain through the large clip and tug it until it's tight.


Stretch the hook across the tire

5. Feed the tensioning chain through as many red clips along the side chain as you can, leaving room to still be able to stretch the hook across the tire. Attach the hook to the side chain directly across from the last clip you ran the tensioner through. The hook should face away from your tire.


6. Drive forward around 325' (about the length of a football field) and stop. Check the chains and tighten them as needed.


Quick Tips:

  • Lengthen the life of snow chains by drying them after each use before you store them.
  • Check out our installation kit with safety lights and a kneeling pad (PO34FRK) to make things a little easier when you're installing cables out in the snow.

How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle

To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire.


Tire size on sidewall

185/60-15

  1. (185) - indicates tire width in millimeters
  2. (60) - gives you the aspect ratio (sidewall height as percentage of width)
  3. (15) - denotes the diameter of the wheel rim in inches

  • Recommended Tire Chains for a 2015 Toyota Yaris
    The easiest tire chains to install on your 2015 Toyota Yaris are the Konig item # TH01221060. These have been confirmed to fit 175/65/15 tires. The chain's D-Shape links provide excellent traction and the integrated rubber tensioners let you control the fit of your chains. These chains are sold in pairs. I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get them set up. I recommend practicing installing them so you know what you're doing when you actually need them.

  • Tire Chains for 1990 Subaru Legacy
    For a 2WD vehicle, chains should be placed on the drive wheels. On a 4WD vehicle, chains are typically placed on the rear wheels, although all four wheels may be chained unless your owners manual prohibits it. To view the selection of snow chains, use the provided link and follow the drop down menu for your tire size. I have also provided a link to our snow chain FAQ page which covers many frequently asked questions about snow chains.

  • Recommended Tire Chains for 195/45-16 Size Tires on a 2015 Fiat 500 in the Mountains
    While the Glacier Alloy Square-Link Snow Tire Chains # PWPLC1126 will fit the 195/45-16 size tires on your 2015 Fiat 500 this is a very basic set of chains and they aren't that great, which is evident with the 90-day warranty. For your application I recommend going with the Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains # TH01221060 or the upgraded version # TH00023060 which features self-tensioning and wheel protection. The first set needs 12 mm of clearance while this second set needs 9 mm of clearance...

  • Snow Chain Options for a 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek
    I did some research into the snow chain situation on your 2013 Subaru Crosstrek and it sounds like Subaru does not recommend the use of chains, but if you do decide to use them in an emergency situation that you should be sure to use a Class S or better rated traction device. Class S is a clearance rating that means there is less than 15 mm between the inner portion of the tire sidewall and the wheel well. The best option I can give you would be the Thule Premium Self-Tensioning Snow...

  • Tire Chains for an All-Wheel Drive 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser
    With all-wheel drive vehicles if using one set of chains then they should go on the main drive axle but then turn off the traction control, if equipped. If you cannot turn off traction control or don't want to then I recommend using 2 sets of chains. The additional weight of chains on just one axle would not harm the vehicle but with traction control on and only 1 set of chains the power distribution would not be adequate to get the best traction. For the best traction, braking, and steering...

  • Will Thule K-Summit K44 Tire Chains Fit 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek
    The Thule K-Summit K44, part # TH01221060 is a fit for the P225/55-17 tires on your XV Crosstrek. According to the owner's manual, Subaru only recommends using a Class S chain on your vehicle, due to the limited amount of clearance between the inside of the wheel and the suspension and braking components. Since the # TH01221060 is a Class S rated chain, it'll work fine for you. I'd recommend consulting your owner's manual, and abiding by any recommendations or prohibitions regarding tire...
