Is 1 or 2 Sets of Tire Chains Needed on a 2011 Honda CR-V All Wheel Drive
Question:
Just wondering if I need to buy two pairs or one pair? Driving through Lookout pass and Snoqualmie pass. Thanks!

According to the owner's manual for your 2011 Honda CR-V tire chains should only be used on the front 2 tires. The "chains" it recommends are actually cables. For ladder style cables that fit the 225/65-17 tires on the 2011 Honda CR-V use # TC1042. But you could also use chains # PWSXV580 since they are Class S rated (meaning they stick out 1.46 inches or less from the tread and 0.59 inches or less on the sides).
