Interesting... did not know that chains were outlawed in some states. Here, there are a series of "road condition ratings," (from R-1 through R-5, I believe) that denote the chain requirements. Under certain conditions, you MUST have chains (or cables, studs will not be accepted) in order to be permitted travel. Some conditions require all four wheels to be chained. The Highway Patrol sets up roadblocks, and without chains , you will not be allowed passage.
That said.. I wouldn't put chains on a Camaro. I've chained everything else I've ever had, but the book says no to chains on this car. Yes, I do drive around in the snow a hell of a lot (generally, it's a matter of getting to the Highway Patrol roadblock areas BEFORE they get there to set up shop), and the car does really well in the snow. Traction control (and the judicious use of it, on and off for different situations), and the other dynamics of the car make it very driveable in snow and ice.
