I have two sets of rear wheels, one with chains, one without.  IMO it's 
less 
trouble to jack up the tractor and put on the wheel with chains than to 
try 
to apply a set of chains to a wheel that's already on the tractor -- and I 
have a garage in which to work.  

My hat's off to you for your fortitude.  If I had to put on chains in the 
driveway in the slush and snow ... well, I might be tempted to give one of 
the kids down the road a double sawbuck to shovel the driveway while I 
watched from the dining room window.  ;-)
