Will the Glacier Chains Square-Link Tire Chains Fit on a 2012 Honda Odyssey EX-L

Question:

Hi, Want to confirm these will fit on the 2012 Honda Odyssey, EX-L. Tire size is 235 65 TR17, but not sure if I need the lower clearance cable chains or if you know if these will fit. Thanks

The Titan Chain # TC1555 is a low profile Class-S chain featuring square links (best bite) on a diamond pattern and will fit on the 235/65-17 tires on your 2012 Honda Odyssey EX-L. These chains have the Class S designation, meaning they are designed for vehicles with restricted wheel-well clearance. These chains require at least 37 mm or 1-15/32 inch of clearance between the top of the tire tread and the wheel well and at least 15 mm or 19/32 inch between the tire sidewall and the vehicle. I checked out a 2012 Honda Odyssey that we have on our lot and verified that you will have no problem meeting those clearance requirements.

I would recommend using the Glacier Rubber Adjusters, # PW100, to provide tension to the chains for a tight and secure fit.

Some vehicle manufacturers do not recommend the use of tire chains or place restrictions on the use of chains. I recommend checking your owners manual for any restrictions or procedures necessary for using tire chains.

I have attached two FAQ articles on snow tire chains for you to check out as well as a link to all of the tire chains that we carry that will fit your tire size for you to check out.
