Need recommendations on buying snow chains/cables for my XC90. Have 255/50 19 tires.

Looking at SCC Super 6 - SZ435 to buy buy due to their low profile and class S rating.

Any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Is this for driving up to the ski slopes? You don't need chains. AWD with all season(?) tires will get you through the check points.

    Remember, with chains, your top speed is less than 30mph!! And you need to remove them when you hit dry pavement, regardless of temperature.

    This is a pretty good read, note that they are all from California:

    Keeping it running is better than buying new
