Honestly, for our area, I suggest keeping chains in the trunk for when mountain passes require them. Then consider either using a good all-season tire all year long, or get some of those magical-traction new snow tires and put them on a set of cheap wheels, which will avoid annual mounting hassles. I suggest the 'good all-season tire' gambit but do your homework. There are "M&S"-rated tires that SUCK for winter traction and others that are actually pretty good. Basically, the less longitundinal tread lines and more transverse tread lines, the better. But 30-60 minutes of research is worth your time.
