Since my FRS is RWD and I just got myself a season pass at a Tahoe ski resort, I have been looking into this.

I realized that in California, if you have 2WD and the conditions are bad, you're forced to use chains/cables (snow tires alone won't do), so I'm going to just get 2 pairs of cables if I try to take my car up the mountains. Generally speaking if the road has more than a bit of slush on it, they start requiring chains, but seeing how 4WD all seasons isn't enough to get out of minor snow, I'd probably throw the cables on the second I see anything frozen on the ground.

Maybe check your state laws, they might require you to have chains.
