Engineered Winter Grip and Stability
Navigating cold conditions requires traction equipment that integrates flawlessly with your vehicle's mechanical demands. The König K-Summit K45 snow chains provide an elevated driving experience across snow and ice, giving you complete reassurance when winter weather sets in. Featuring an advanced chain configuration, the system delivers optimal grip and dependable directional control on slick surfaces, allowing your saloon to track smoothly and predictably.
Unlike conventional traction aids that can cause uneven tyre engagement, these chains work cohesively with your car's dynamic systems. Whether confronting packed snow on steep climbs or navigating icy secondary routes, the robust design ensures stable road handling. The refined architecture of the chain elements keeps the tyre tread in constant contact with the driving surface, maximising traction and ensuring your winter journeys proceed with uninterrupted calm.
Exclusively Engineered for Tesla Model S 19-Inch Wheels
Precision in fitment is vital for protecting high-performance electric saloons. These premium snow chains have been created specifically for the Tesla Model S manufactured between 2012 and 2021, equipped with factory-standard 19-inch wheels. Every aspect of the assembly has been tailored to match this precise wheel size, ensuring a secure, tailored installation that aligns with the chassis geometry.
Due to the compact spatial tolerances around the wheel well and braking hardware, universal snow chains present substantial risks of clearance interference. The König K-Summit K45 fits exclusively to the designated 19-inch setup, eliminating guesswork and providing exact alignment. For drivers seeking authentic wheels accessories built to preserve vehicle architecture, this bespoke system offers uncompromised compatibility and complete peace of mind.
Rapid, Tool-Free Installation in Minutes
Winter weather often requires rapid deployment in harsh, freezing roadside conditions. The König K-Summit K45 system eliminates the frustration of complicated manual tensioning or difficult manoeuvres behind the tyre. Engineered for straightforward mounting and demounting, the entire set can be secured in a matter of minutes without the need for any specialised tools.
The intuitive external fitting mechanism allows you to secure the system directly from the outer face of the wheel. There is no need to reach around the inner wheel arch or roll the car back and forth to achieve full engagement. Once positioned, the chain tightens and seats itself as the wheel turns, allowing you to resume your journey quickly, safely, and cleanly without lingering in freezing temperatures.
Suspension Protection and System Integration
The undercarriage and suspension setup of the Model S require absolute clearance around the inner tyre sidewall. The König K-Summit K45 attaches exclusively to the outer wheel face and tyre tread, leaving the inner wheel arch entirely unobstructed. This critical geometry ensures a safe fit that prevents any contact with or damage to the sensitive wheel suspension components.
Using unapproved traction devices has been shown to cause direct suspension interference and severe mechanical damage to the vehicle. Because of this, the K-Summit K45 is the only snow chain set officially recommended by Tesla. Furthermore, the design remains fully compatible with onboard ABS and ESP safety systems, ensuring that your vehicle's electronic traction management, stability control, and braking systems operate harmoniously without electronic interference or false interventions.
Robust Construction and Organised Storage
Engineered for dependable longevity, the König K-Summit K45 features a durable, robust design crafted to endure heavy snow, road salt, and harsh winter environments. The hard-wearing components resist wear and deformation over repeated seasonal use, ensuring that the chains maintain their tensile strength and gripping performance season after season.
When the chains are not actively in use, keeping them organised and clean inside your vehicle is effortless. Each pair comes supplied with a dedicated storage case, designed for convenient transport and neat storage in your front trunk or rear luggage compartment. The compact case keeps your vehicle interior pristine, safeguarding boot linings from wet or slush-laden equipment while ensuring your winter chains remain ready for immediate deployment.
Frequently asked questions
Which vehicles are compatible with the König K-Summit K45 snow chains?
These snow chains are designed exclusively for the Tesla Model S produced between 2012 and 2021, fitted with 19-inch wheels. They are engineered specifically for this wheel specification to guarantee correct fitment and clearance.
Why is this the only snow chain set recommended by Tesla?
The Model S has minimal clearance between the inner tyre wall and suspension components. Non-recommended chains are known to cause damage to the suspension and vehicle structure. The König K-Summit K45 mounts externally and avoids the inner wheel well entirely, ensuring zero contact with suspension hardware.
Do I need special tools to install and remove the chains?
No tools are required. The König K-Summit K45 system features an easy, tool-free installation and removal process that can be completed within minutes from the outer face of the wheel.
Are these snow chains compatible with vehicle electronic stability systems?
Yes. The system is fully compatible with both ABS (anti-lock braking system) and ESP (electronic stability programme), allowing your vehicle's active safety and traction features to function normally on snow and ice.
