Question:

Hi, I want to get some tire chains that will fit my 2010 Audi Q5 SUV and my tire size is 255/45R/20 - 101W. When I put in my car it gives me multiple options, but when I go into the details it says 235 tire size for certain chains. Can you recommend tire chains that will definitely work for my card and tire size? Thanks

Expert Reply:

The best option we have for tire chains that fit your tire size of 255/45-20 is the Thule Easy Fit Chains part # TH04115255.

These chains install in a matter of seconds without requiring you to get under the vehicle in the snow, provide excellent traction, and will last a long time.

I also attached a link to all of the chains that fit your tire size as well.

The most inexpensive chains we have are the Titan Square Link chains part # TC2229CAM which most likely wouldn't have clearance to fit your Audi but would do a great job with traction if they did. For inexpensive cables you'd wan the # TC2029 which are a great one-time or emergency use only set. Next up is the heavier duty Titan chain set part # TC2229SHD which is made from manganese nickel allow which lasts a very long time. Then we have the Konig set part # TH2004705255 which is a great option for a lower clearance, great traction, and reasonably easy install. Then we have the Easy Fit we talked about already # TH04115255, and then finally the K-Summit # TH02230K66 which requires the least amount of clearance and is very easy to install as well.
