Re: Snow Chains on a Dually?

Lightly loaded 2wd dual wheel trucks suck on slick stuff.They float when you need to dig.But,we don`t get enough snow for chains here.All you need is a patch of ice or snow to get stuck.Our roads are cleared within a day and the pace keeps on rolling fast.But,small patches remain.Would you run chains on 98% cleared roads just in case you set on an ice patch?I`d put real winter tires on there and most of all...weight.
