Recommended Snow Tire Chains For Honda Pilot 2013 5DR 4WD-EX-L

Question:

Hi, my auto manual strongly recommends using Cable-type: QCC Premium Cobra 1046P snow chains. But, your website says these TC2829CAM titan chains will work with my vehicle. Is this true? Will these chains touch my brake lines or suspension? Or can I really use them? They look like a much better type of snow chain than the cable ones. Please advise. Thank you! My tire size is: P235/60 R18 My vehicle is 2013 Honda Pilot 5DR 4WD EX-L Thank you for your assistance.

The QCC Premium Cobra 1046P chains you mentioned are not the only option, they are just a recommended option from Honda due to limited clearance. We have other limited clearance options for your P235/60 R18 tires on your 2013 Honda Pilot 5DR 4WD EX-L.

The Titan chains # TC2829CAM are confirmed to fit your tires, but I don't recommend them because they are not for the limited clearance that is labeled class S.

I recommend the Pewag Snox Pro Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link - 1 Pair # PWSXV580 for your application. These are easy to install square-link chains that will function well on snow and/or ice. They are made of nickel manganese alloy steel so they won't break down after a couple uses.
