Today in our 2017 Ford Explorer, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Koenig self-tensioning snow tire chains. Part number TH01594250. The tire size we're working with today is 245 60 R18.What I really like about these tire chains is they're very easy to install, thanks to the color coded connection points, and they're also self-tensioning, meaning we don't have to purchase any rubber adjusters to connect all around the chain to make sure our chain stays snug against the tire. It's going to do that by itself with this system.These chains have a diamond pattern rather than a ladder pattern. That's going to give you more coverage around your tire and provide you with great traction through rough conditions. The steel D links are going to dig into that snow and ice and provide great traction through starts, stops and turns.The plastic coated tension points are going to make sure that it's not cold to the touch for your fingers, like other unfinished metal chains are. more
