  • Quantity: 2 tire chains
  • Internal clearance required: 3/8"
  • 5-Year warranty


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


The Konig CG-9 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 self-tension and self-center as you drive, ensuring a perfect fit, no matter the profile or wear pattern of your tire. Plus, you only have to get out of your vehicle one time - once they're installed, there's no need to drive forward, stop, and recheck their tension.


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, you'll 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 them.


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. Pull it and secure to the red hook attached to the tensioning cable.


Stretch the hook across the tire

Drive forward so that the chains can self-tension and self-center, giving you a perfect fit.


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

  • What Tire Chains Offer Rim Protection for My Size 225/40-18 and 215/45-18 Tires on My 2009 Mazda 3?
    I have a great tire chain solution for you. Unfortunately, we do not carry a Konig CG9 model like the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - CG9 # TH2004205105 that will fit your 225/40-18 tires or the OEM size of 215/45-18 on your 2009 Mazda 3. However, if you are concerned about protecting your rims, I did find a model that will fit both tire sizes that includes the same outer covered band as the CG9. That is the pewag Servo RS Self-Tensioning...

  • Snow Chains For 2024 Subaru Outback With 225/60-18
    Hello Nigel, you are definitely ahead of the game here looking for tire chains in August. We do have some great chains that will fit the 225/60-18 tires on your 2024 Subaru Outback. I recommend the Konig Tire Chains # TH2004205105. These chains are Class S compatible, meaning the links are low profile and will work on vehicles with limited clearance in the wheel well. I do recommend following the instruction in your owner's manual so front axle only. The Konig chains are super durable,...

  • Snow Tire Chains or Cables For 2019 Subaru Outback With 225/60-18 Tires
    That's a really good question, and your assumption about chains being better than cables is right on for your 2019 Subaru Outback with 225/60-18 tires. Cables are really just for emergency use, and realistically only able to be used once or twice, so if you aren't sure you will really be using them, or don't mind buying another set yearly, then it is fine to go with the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains # PW1046. Having said that, I do highly recommend going with a specific set of chains...

  • What Tire Chains do You Recommend for My 2017 Subaru Outback with Size 225/60-18 Tires?
    For your all-wheel drive 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon, Subaru recommends using tire chains on your front wheels only. In addition, the manual recommends using Class S approved chains only in order to decrease the probability of damage to components inside your wheel wells. Judging by your recent searches, it looks like you have the standard tire size of 225/60-18 on your Outback. For this size, a great set of tire chains is the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains - Diamond...

  • What Tires on 2019 Subaru Outback Should Tire Chains be Used on
    I used a search engine to look up the owner's manual of your 2019 Subaru Outback and it stated on page 8-12 to use a traction device on the front wheels only, so you do not need chains for all four wheels. It also states you need to use a Class S traction device to ensure clearance and that you can't use normal steel chains, but you can use self-tensioning chains (these will be tight around your tire which means they will give you the clearance needed not to hit your Outback's wheel well).

  • Should Tire Chains Be Installed on Front and Back Tires of a 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon
    We always recommend to stick with what the owner's manual says for your car so if the manual for your 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon says to only install tire chains on the front tires then we also recommend only installing the Konig Tire Chains # TH2004205105 on your front 225/60-18 tires. Attached is an installation video of these chains on a 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon for you to check out.

  • What is Speed Rating for Konig Tire Chains
    30 mph is the fastest you can go with a set of Konig tire chains like the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains # TH2004205105 that you referenced. If you were in conditions that call for tire chains you really wouldn't want to exceed this speed even if the chains would allow it.

  • What Snow Tire Chains Or Cables Are Recommended For A 2007 Ford Escape 4WD
    Before buying snow tire chains you will want to check your owners manual or with the Ford dealer if you can install snow tire chains on your 2007 Ford Escape 4WD, or if there are any limitations. Both the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part # PW1042, and the Thule Chains # TH2004205105, will be compatible with the 235/70R16 tire size.
