  • Which Snow Tire Chains Will Fit My 2013 Audi A6 Tires?
  • We do have low-profile snow tire chains for your 2013 Audi A6. You can go with a cable design or a chain design.

Chains on the other hand are thicker and more aggressive for heavier snow and also could potentially cause more damage than cables if they happened to break. That being said, I recommend going with a cable setup, but I will give you options for each style. If...
