Are the Snow Tire Chains # TH01594250 Safe to Use on 245/60-18 Tires for a 2022 Kia Telluride?
Question:
Are these wheel safe for 2022 KIA Telluride 18inch wheel
asked by: Theresa
Expert Reply:
I went ahead and confirmed with the owner's manual of a 2022 Kia Telluride that the manufacturer recommends tire socks for the front tires of the standard 18-inch wheels (245/60-18 tires) on your vehicle. The reason why the manufacturer recommends socks is so they can avoid any liability/warranty coverage just in case the vehicle sustains any damage from tire chains. With that being said, the manual does say that you can use tire chains if they are fitted properly. For a great pair of tire socks, I recommend the ISSE Hybrid Snow Socks - Size 72 - 1 Pair # TCH72.
However, if you are considering the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XG12 Pro # TH01594250, it is a great choice. The reason why these chains are a great choice is that they only require 12mm of wheel well clearance and the blue/yellow band will decrease the probability of damage sustained to your struts/wheel well components. In order to make sure that they will fit safely, I recommend measuring your wheel wells to make sure you can accommodate a 12mm clearance.
For the absolute safest bet, I the Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - K-Summit XXL # TH2004565767 are the best choice. The reason why these chains are the best is because these chains do not install at any point of the interior tire wall (and thus don't require any clearance). This makes it almost impossible to get tangled/interfere with any components in the wheel well.
