Tire Chains for Snow and Ice and a 2013 Honda CR-V EX-L with 225/65-17 Tires

Question

Question:

Trying to figure out what chains would be the best for my 2013 Honda CRV. Tires are 225/65/R17. We are headed on a roadtrip through Colorado and expect some snow and will need tire chains to assist with the snow/icy drive. Which brand/type do you recommend?

For a set of tire chains that will fit the 225/65-17 tires on your 2013 Honda CR-V and that are great for snow and/or ice I recommend the Konig XG12 chains # TH01594245. These chains have a diamond pattern to cover a good portion of the tire tread and the steel plates in the centers are great for grip/breaking up ice.

Hey Brian, we do not have a thermostat control setup for your roof vent. If that's something you needed you'd have to go with a different vent assembly like the MaxxFan part #MA00-04002K.

Realistically it is best to stick with a Dometic replacement thermostat for your Dometic setup. The #DMC79FR is the correct replacement for your 3316410.012. It may be possible to use a universal thermostat like the #CAM09221 you looked at but this…

Hey Bruno, What's your tire size? I'd prefer to confirm if the Konig Commercial Truck Tire Chains #TH01571245 is compatible. The owner's manual for a 2017 Ram ProMaster 2500 states to only use tire chains on the front axle only. Since…

One big difference between the XB16 chains like part #TH01571245 and XG12 chains like the #TH01594245 is the link size which is hinted at in the title of the chains. The XB16 requires 16 mm of clearance and the XG12 only requires 12 mm. They are…
