Snow Chain Recommendation for a 2005 Honda Accord with 205/60R 16 size Tires
Question:
The Accord owners manual is very specific about low clearance cable chains. Though it appears just about any S clearance rated chain system will fit. There are 6 or 7 options listed for accords with tire size 205/60R 16. I want something that works well and provides good handling and control. Are the diamond pattern chains superior to cables? Would only use only a few days a year...so, doesnt have to be the top of the line.

Expert Reply:
The chains that feature actual chain instead of cable should provide you with more traction than the cable snow chains, therefore giving you better handling and control.
However, since your owners manual specifically says to use low clearance cable style chains you should stick with their recommendation and get that style snow chain, otherwise you may damage your 2005 Honda Accord. I recommend you get Glacier Tire Chains for the 2005 Accord by Honda, part # PW1034.
