The two stock tire sizes found on a 2007 Hyundai Tucson are 215/65-16 and 235/60-16, however you state that you have installed aftermarket tires sized 235/65-16 which are a bit wider. For that tire I recommend the Titan Chains # TC2229CAM chains with twisted links (good traction) and cam locks for easier installation, on a ladder pattern.
These will work as long as you have a minimum of 1.46 inches of clearance between the top of the tire tread and the wheel well, and at least 0.59 inches between the tire's sidewall and the vehicle, these will fit just fine and work really well to provide you with the traction you need.
If you need a lower profile chain, or your Owner's Manual specifies Class-S cable/chains then the Titan Chains # TC1555 would be a good fit. Includes build in tensioners.
