For your 2021 Subaru Forester with tire size 225/60-17 the best overall option that has great clearances is the Konig Easy Fit Chains part # TH04115104 as it installs in a matter of seconds, is Class S compatible (that means requires minimal clearance) and provides excellent traction.
Now the chain that has the absolute best clearance is the K-Summit chains part # TH02230K45 as this is only option that doesn't drape over tire's sidewall at all which is where most clearance issues arise.
