Question:

The description says that these are Drive On and Connect, but the videos show them being installed by draping them over the tire and then reaching around and finding the hook at the bottom this is the part that I hate. Can you drive on to the chains and connect at the top of the tire?

For your 2015 Toyota Highlander with tire size 245/60-18 I have a really great option for tire chains that install very easily. Your best option is the Konig Self Tensioning Chains part # TH04115250 which install in a matter of seconds. Basically you drape the chains over the tire and then push down a lever with your foot and they are ready to go. If you check out the review video I attached for these chains you'll see how easy they are to install.

If you want something easy to install I don't think the Titan chains you mentioned would be your ideal solution as they aren't a simple drive on and connect set.
