are those snow chains on the front tires? Pardon my ignorance as I don't live where it snows. If they are snow chains, why wouldn't they help on the front? The front needs traction too for turning.

CHains ONLY go on the drive wheels. I suppose you could put them on the front however what good is it to do that if the back tires are not chained?

That's what I was thinking. Wouldn't you need traction to get the car going and getting grip with the tires that get the power to them?
Dude in the pic needs to buy himself a beater winter car is what he needs to do!!
