Putting chains on 35" tires - does it make that much of a difference?

If you still have control you aren't going fast enough

Chains rock, night and day difference in traction, especially if your running some bald street tires in the snow. Ice+steel=traction and it's the only way your going to hook up in super icy conditions.
