Will Konig K-Summit Tire Chains Fit 225/60R17 Tires on a 2011 Subaru Outback Wagon

Question:

Will the Koenig K Summit Size K45, th02230k45 work on my 2011 Subaru Outback with 225/60-R17 tires? The size is listed in those that tis model fits, but you say its not confirmed to fit.

The Konig K-Summit Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains # th02230k45 do fit 225/60R17 size tires, but we were finding a lot of instances where it wasn't fitting right on some of the 2011 Subaru Outback Wagons so we decided to take it out of our fitguide just to be on the safe side of things.

I recommend going with the Konig Easy Fit CU9 # TH04115104 chains instead. These are just as nice and extremely easy to install. The biggest different is that these do sit on the back side of the tire sidewall as opposed to just on the tread like what you find with the K-Summit chains.
