Greetings;
I've read a number of posts reminding owners to make sure that the ratio of the sizes of front and rear tires must remain the same to avoid stress on the front end when using 4wd. Does putting chains only on the rear tires create enough change in diameter to cause any problems if you were to engage 4wd? I'm thinking that it wouldn't make much difference if you were on snow (skidding logs and such) but what about on hard ice or pavement?
Cheers, Erik
