Chains are an absolute pain in the ass. They only work on ice, and they are only meant to work on ice. If you enjoy putting them on and taking them off (I don't, 'course they were for 30in tires) go for it.
I would not use them unless you are going up and down hills all the time. Anchorage is a hilly place, but not so much people need them here. Only moving trucks need them if they are going to hillside, and only at the point they reach or anticipate an impassible slope of ice.
What kind of vehicle are you going to put them on?
