Cable Style Tire Chains for a 2015 Volvo XC60 with 255/45-20 Tires

Published 12/29/2016

Question:

Would these work well on a Volvo XC60 with 20inch 255/45 tires? Im concerned about the clearance on the inside but dont really use chains very often so Id like to avoid very expensive options like the Thule K66

Cable tire chains # TC2029 are a fit for the 255/45-20 tires on your 2015 Volvo XC60. These are Class S rated chains meaning they are designed for vehicles with limited clearance.

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 itself.
