Alternatively, winter tires are pretty good if a storm pops up on you right there and you need to get out. I wouldn't think you would be turned around back into the storm.
If you traveled that area with regularity in the winter, and there were regularly storms which require chains, I might suggest you purchased the wrong car.
Idk, I survived snow storms in NY and New England for many years without chains or even winter tires. And Vermont doesn't really plow sometimes.
