Do Glacier Tire Cables PW2016C Meet 15 mm Fender Well Clearance Dimension
Published 01/05/2017 >
Question:
Hello, The owners manual for my 2016 VW Tiguan says that I can only use snow tires with low profile links that are not thicker than 37/65 in. 15mm. I saw in the description of this product that these chains are designed with a low profile but it doesnt mention the exact size. What are the dimensions of these links? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The clearance dimension you listed is a reference to Class S tire chains which do not take up more than 15 mm of clearance.
The Glacier Tire Cables part # PW2016C that you referenced are Class S compatible so they would work for you.
