Snow Cable Recommendation for Tire Size 225/65R17 on 2015 Subaru Outback
Question:
I have a set of Super Z LT tire chains.. stock number ZT729 and would like to give them to a friends son who just got a 2015 Subaru Outback that has 225/65r17 tires on it.. He goes to school in Colorado and while they dont get a lot of snow where he is.. it does happen.. the vehicle is AWD, so no aggressive chain/cable is required.. just wondering if this set would work in a pinch for him. The sizes I see on the box look pretty darned close.. I understand you probably cant recommend them if they arent specifically for this sized tire, but I would like to know if you think they would fit. Thoughts? Thank you!

Tire chain fits are very specific. If the size isn't listed on that chains that you have then they aren't going to fit even if it seems really close. The safe option is the Glacier cables part # PW1042 that you referenced which would fit and work well.
