Make sure you have the chains installed with the cut ends of the cross link connector AWAY from the sidewalls. They are sharp and will cut the tires if installed the wrong way.
If you put them on the front tires, check carefully that they will not catch on anything when you turn the wheels left and right. Most vehicle now days don't have a lot of extra room in the wheel wells.
You will have to drive slow. Have you seen how the rear tires on a drag racer get larger as they go faster? Not that the chain will stretch, but you can't get them tight enough to not fly up a little bit.
On bare pavement it will be like a road full of speed bumps.
I would put them on when needed and take them back off when not.
