A set is for two locations.
An extra chain is so if you break or loose one, you can replace the lost one.
The OP said, "carrying a minimum of two extra sets off chains" when the law says to carry 2 extra chains. So in that context, "set" meant one wheel.
That's what the confusion is about. Put simply, you need 4 wheel's worth of chains to meet that law.
LOL If two chains are a "set" then why not just say an extra set is required vs two extra chains? This comment was directed at the idiots who wrote this lame law..........our gov't hard at work!!!! :R
To be fair, a "set" is vague whereas 2 means exactly that, especially when dually and multi-axle combination vehicles are involved.
But yeah, they are lame for not updating the 10k number for decades.
