Question:
Hi eTrailer, I am interested in purchasing the 2016 Mazda CX-5 Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XB16 - Size 245 Konig Tire Chains Code: TH01571245. I just want to make sure these chains will work with my 2016 Mazda CX-5. I have standard tires, not snow tires - are these chains suitable for regular tires? Thank you for your help!

Your 2016 owners manual online says to use snow chains only on the front wheels. There are two different size wheels that come with your 2016 Mazda CX-5, so there are two different size chains I will recommend. They can be used on regular, standard tires.
The Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XB16 - Size 245, # TH01571245, you referenced will work on your vehicle if you are using 225/65-17 tires. These are exellent chains that are made of manganese nickel alloy steel. They are color-coded at their connection points to make an easy install. These chains included a storage container, kneeling mat, gloves, and mounting instructions. They require 16mm of internal clearance.
If you are using the 225/55-19 tires, you will want the Thule Standard Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XB16 - Size 247, # TH01571247. These are the same chains listed above in a slightly different size to fit these other size tire dimensions properly.
