I thought it is illegal to use these chains on city streets and highways (at least in Michigan and Illinois). Unless, you are planning on using in remote areas...
The reason [for illegal to use chains] is that these chains damage roads. I am not agreeing/disagreeing with the law.

Laws vary by state. In Oregon, chains are sometimes required. This is primarily in the mountains. You never want to use chains on bare pavement because you lose traction. These are perfect for snow enthusiasts or when winter off-roading (or mud) is necessary.

Can't imagine you need those in Charleston! Where'd you move from?

You can use them for mud off-road.
