In California, it's either CHAINS REQUIRED,or no chains required. There is no in-between. The CHP determines when chains become necessary and, after that, all vehicles must put on their chains. On duals, only the outer one is required. No snow tires are acceptable.
Requirement One (R1): Chains, traction devices or snow tires are required on the drive axle of all vehicles except four wheel/ all wheel drive vehicles.
Requirement Two (R2): Chains or traction devices are required on all vehicles except four wheel/ all wheel drive vehicles with snow-tread tires on all four wheels.
(NOTE: Four wheel/all wheel drive vehicles must carry traction devices in chain control areas.)
Requirement Three (R3): Chains or traction devices are required on all vehicles, no exceptions
I drive our jeep with M+S rated tires through the checkpoints up to R2 all the time. R3 is VERY rare around here at least.
