Do You Sell A Konig Tire Chain That Will Fit My 2020 Tesla Model 3

Question:

Hi, do you confirm that these chains fit on teslam model 3 SR+ equipped with 235/45/zr18? Indeed on the Koning site the configurator does not offer them for the Tesla Model 3... Thank you in advance! I think there are many owners of this car who would be interested to know.

Tesla and Konig/ Pewag have a relationship. In fact, the email I received from the Konig/Pewag representative said they will not warranty or support any Konig snow tire chains not recommended by Tesla. The email said Konig makes snow tire chains specifically for Tesla tires and vehicles and they differ from any retail version of their snow tire chains. Due to this development, I have to say that the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Pro Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - Easy Fit CU9 - Size 102, part # TH04115102, will not fit the 235/45-18 tires of your 2020 Tesla Model 3. If you want a Konig snow tire chain, you will have to contact Tesla directly.

If you decided to go in a different direction, perhaps the Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern - Twist Links - 1 Pair, part # TC1142. This snow tire chain is a Class S snow tire chain, designed for vehicles with close wheel well tolerances. You will assume the risk. It is my belief that using a non Konig tire chain may violate Tesla's warranty.

I have included a product description link and a video review link below.
