Your owner's manual recommends using snow chains/tire chains and suggests a specific chain company but they can't require that by law. The chains recommended are simply class s chains which provide a lower profile so your clearances are not as impacted but the quality of chain isn't as good as what I recommend. You are correct that the inner clearances are the most important to prevent contact and any damage so the class S (low profile) chains what you need. You will want to note the owner's manual states to only use the chains on the front tires and not to put chains on the rear tires.

My recommendation for you is to use the Pewag Snox Pro Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link - 1 Pair # PWSXV590. These chains provide a self-tensioning feature that tightens the chains as you drive to ensure the proper fit. The nickel manganese alloy steel is extremely durable and corrosion resistant. The plastic bumpers prevent scuffs or scratches on your rims. I've attached a video to assist with the installation.
