Expert Reply:
Without the exact model of CG9 Thule/Konig tire chains you have on your 2021 Nissan Kicks, I cannot confirm whether they are safe to use or not.
However, judging by our available tire chains that are confirmed to fit your standard 205/55-17 tires, the safest chains we carry for them are the Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - K-Summit - Size K33 # TH02230K33. The reason why these chains are the safest is because no part of the Konig Premium Chains install anywhere on the interior sidewall of the tire. This eliminates the potential for damage for interior wheel well components such as struts. Also, the self-tensioners on the chains cancel the need for you to tighten the chains after each trip.
Per Nissan, chains should be installed on your front tires only. For more details about tire chains, I recommend you consult with your owner's manual.
Feel free to respond with your model number of your chains, and I will be happy to confirm a fitment for you.
