I would stay in 4WD even with chains. If you try them on the front be sure you have the room when you turn. Rember the centrificical (spelling?) force will make it taller than your tires when driving. You dont want to take off the front end. rember not to drive too fast as well. Last of all don't try to impress people by not chaining up if you really think you should. Good luck
You forgot 1 thing man. Chain up before you get stuck. Its just easier that way, that's kind of like heading for a mud hole, getting into the middle of the mud hole and realizing your hubs aren't locked in. Kind of late then isn't it. LOL.

Yes, definitly try them on before you leave home, to be sure they fit correctly. They aren't much good if they're too big or too small.
