Expert Reply:

Clearance refers to the overall width or diameter of a tire chain. This measurement is important because certain vehicles have restrictions regarding the amount of available space between each wheel well and tire. There may be a limited amount of room between your wheel and various braking or suspension components on your vehicle, thus prohibiting large chains from being used on your particular vehicle.

The Thule Standard Snow Tire Chains CB-12, # TH01221090, which you reference, require 12 millimeters of clearance and offer little interference and superior traction.

Make sure you should check your owner's manual for any restrictions on snow chains.
