I recommend going with the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains for SUVs and Crossover Vehicles - XG12 Pro - Size 247 # TH01594247 since they're self tensioning and will ultimately provide you with a super easy installation and graet traction. The D link chains will provide superior traction in all types of snow or ice, and the diamond pattern provides you with a bit smoother ride than the ladder style chains. I've linked a video to this answer to help you show how these chains work and install on your vehicle.
I prefer these chains to something like the Konig # th02230k55 because they don't require a tool to attach them to the wheels. Both of these options do provide wheel/rim protection as well, so you don't have to worry about your wheels getting scratched up.
