You can use the ISSE Hybrid Snow Socks # TCH72 on your 2018 Honda Pilot with 245/60R18 tires if you like. They are a solid option for lighter snow or ice, so it really depends on the severity of the roads.
If you know you will be experiencing a more dramatic/heavier snow or ice event, then I do recommend going with chains in order to maximize the grip and control. For chains that are easy to use and will provide the traction you need for your Pilot with 245/60R18 tires the best option is the Pewag Servo RS Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains # PWRS80.
I have added links below to video reviews for you to check out of both the Pewag chains and the ISSE Hybrid Snow Socks # TCH72.
