Tire Chains for a 2017 Subaru Outback with 235/65-17 Tires  

Updated 01/12/2017 | Published 01/11/2017



Question:

Which tire chain will fit 2017 Subaru Outback with Michelin Defender Ltx m/s 235/65-17 plus size installed on this vehicle?

0

Expert Reply:

I have included a link to all of the tire chains that fit the 235/65-17 tires on your 2017 Subaru Outback. That does include cables # PW1046. Cables are a solid choice if your owner's manual states that chains or traction devices with a Class S rating are needed because of limited clearance around the tires. I also recommend rubber adjusters # PW105 to help keep the chains tight and centered.

Snow Chain Recommendation for 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon with Tire Size 225/60R18

We have similar tire cables to the Titan set you referenced that do fit your tire size of 225/60R18 like with the #PW1046 from Glacier but the #TC343DC would not fit. If you wanted my recommendation though I would go with the Konig Easy Fit chains…
