    Well I didn’t. What now?

    At least I looked before I posted. Didn’t see it. It’s hard to read this phone while driving you know.

    Would you like a cookie now?

    I asked this question a couple months back. I cannot remember every single state’s rule. But I believe CA and OR have the most required.

    4 drive tires and the last 2 trailer tires. I believe somebody said u must have a spare chain too in CA or OR.

    You're supposed to have 7 by the letter of the law in WA.

    4 drives, 2 drags, and a spare.

    Yup, but I’ve found a place where they’re $65 a bag. Quality? Not sure Probability of actually being used? Close to zero.
