Correct Konig Self-Tensioning Tire Chains for a 2014 Subaru Legacy with P225/50R17 Tires
Question:
I checked my 2014 Subaru Legacy 3.6R owner's manual and this is what it says about Tire Chains. It said my car cannot use Tire Chains, but can use another traction device such as spring chains. What are spring chains and does the auto-track model you shared 0155305 qualify as that? Thank you!

The correct Konig Self-Tensioning Tire Chains for a 2014 Subaru Legacy with P225/50R17 tires is part # TH00023100. These chains have a self tensioning mechanism to maintain the correct level of tightness, nylon bumpers to protect the vehicle's wheels, and a class s rating for the best clearance. They will need to be installed on the front tires only.
Please note, the owner's manual may have other stipulations for using tire chains you'll want to review before use.
