I want to avoid damage to the ABS unit and the sensor wire that are close to the inside of the front tires. I had my mechanic fit a SCC Z-6 cable chain for the 215x55r17 tires and they were within 1/8 of an inch of the wire. With some flexing the cable may rub on the wire. This is with the outside chain tighteners on. I need some chains for mountain driving when they require them over the passes. Thank You.

    I wonder what your Lexus dealer recommends or sells. If it's not a Lexus make part see what make they sell and Google that name.
