John,
Thanks for your post. While it makes much sense, I have reservations of trying to handle the loaded tires that are currently on the machine. If I went with your suggestion I would be able to get the smaller R4s (I think) which would provide more wheel/fender clearance. The sad thing about this whole issue is the current setup works fine clearing my drive but has the traction issues at my relative's residence where they have steeper drives. (I am the family plow boy)
I will keep my eyes open on a deal for a spare set of tires but most likely I am going to either make my own chains for the rear where the cross links just cover the tread and provide more clearance or I spoke with tirechains.com yesterday and if I measure the tire correctly they may be able to supply a size that does the same.
I truly value your opinion John as you are most of the reason that I stepped up to the 3720.
