Select Vehicle

After selecting your vehicle we will show you the correct size of Konig XB-16 for your vehicle and tyre combination. Please note that the price may vary between sizes.

Fitting notes:

These chains are quick and easy to fit. Have a look at the video. Points to note:

  • When you have pushed the chain around behind the wheel you hold both ends and lift both ends upwards. You want the hoop of chain to rise up under the car axle so that you can clip the two ends together near the top of the wheel. All modern snow chains are fitted in this way.
  • You should pull hard on the tensioning chain.
  • Stop after driving a short distance - even a few metres will do, and give the tensioning chain an extra tug.
  • Practise this a few times before you have to do it for real!
  • You need both hands to fit snowchains, so if it is dark a head torch makes all the difference - head torches are listed on all our snow chains product pages.

Additional notes:

  • All König chains are made from case-hardened manganese nickel (MnNi) alloy steel to provide an optimum combination of strength and hardness.
  • Chains will wear out if driven on tarmac or concrete. König's XB-16 chains can be reversed and fitted 'inside out' on the tyre so that both sides get equal wear, helping them to last much longer.
  • Each XB-16 chain link is 16mm high, D-shaped to make it bite well into snow and ice.
  • If you've used snowchains before you'll really appreciate the XB-16's side-loading steel tightening ratchet - it's particularly quick and easy to use.
  • These chains are supplied in a strong plastic case, together with a pair of plastic gloves, a kneeling mat, and a couple of emergency spare links (pliers are required).
  • All König chains meet the requirements of Austria's Ö-Norm 5117 and Germany's TÜV.
  • Suitable for vehicles up to 5 tonnes.

We're also showing you a range of other winter motoring products which we're selling here at market leading prices, including a snow and ice windscreen protector, a telescopic snow shovel, and a snow brush - all of these items are almost essential kit for winter weather, especially we suggest the snow brush.
