The Konig Tire Chains # TH01221102 (CB-12 102) and Konig Tire Chains # TH00023102 (CG-9 102) are virtually the same except that the # TH01221102 has assisted tensioning and the # TH00023102 is self tensioning. With the assisted tensioning you would have to kind of play around with the tensioning to get it perfect for your tires, whereas the self tensioning you can just pull on the chain and it will tighten and lock into place and the excess can just easily be clipped up. I've attached two videos below showing how each are installed so that you can see the difference.

Answer 5

Tire chains are typically rated for 30 to 40 miles per hour depending on the chain. The Thule CB12 chains, #TH01221102, are rated for 31 miles per hour. If you are in conditions where chains are required, going 40 miles per hour is not a good idea.…

I am far from an expert on snowmobiles but one would have to think such a large truck with the correct tires and chains would be able to make it through up to 2' of snow assuming you have clearance on the vehicle. In regards to the type of tire…

Twist link chains offer excellent traction in deep snow and some are even rated for mud. They provide decent traction on ice, and since they have rounded edges ride quality isn't too bad. V-Bar chains are similar but have better grip on ice. For…

The Titan chains part #TC2323 do not auto-tension. You would need to adjust tighten them up or use tensioners part #TCMA2 to easily remove the slack in the chains.

Answer 10

I do have some traction device options for 235/40R19 tires on a 2023 Honda Accord but the Glacier Tire Chains 1046 are not a fit. There isn't actually any tire cable options due to the odd tire size but we do have socks like the ISSE Classic Snow…

Answer 12

For your tire size of 245/35ZR19 I'd recommend the Konig tire chains part #TH01221102. These are Class S compatible so they will fit well with 13.5 mm of clearance, would install easily, and will provide you great traction.
