nah...
some states still require you to carry chains even if you have 3 peak rated tires or snow tires as a precautionary measure (due to whatever snow advisory requires it such as california).
I personally never had to put on chains w/ BFG ko2's and 4hi. Although it doesnt mean I wasn't sliding all over the place in certain conditions (new snow/non-plowed mountain/resort road). Chains would have made it less butt puckering until i made it to the highway/freeway.
3 peak tires are cool for people who dont want to have 2 sets of tires, or who don't live in an area with a real winter (such as me).
I still carry a set when i go up to the resort towns.
