Are Thule passenger Vehicle Tire Chains the Same as or Made By Konig

Question:

Are these Thule CB12 Tire Chains the SAME as the Konig Super Magic chains? I need a set for my 2011 Subaru Outback and heard that Thule bought Konig. I would like to know if its the same product or not as I am advised that it is very important to have proper clearance of the chain inside the wheel on the Outback.

Konig does make the tire chains for Thule and they are under the Thule umbrella. There are a couple of ways you can search for tire chains that will fit your 2011 Subaru Outback. You can use our hitch hunter and enter the year make and model vehicle and then click on tire chains. Or you can use the link below and search by tire size. Please consult the owners manual for your vehicle as some manufacturers do not permit the use of tire chains on certain vehicles.
