Default Chains???

Sorry to ask this but I need to know if anybody has ever put chains on an F-bod. It snowed 8 inches over the last two days. I was wondering if anyone knows if chains are available for 315/35ZR17 or something that would fit. I just want to get my car out of town but the roads are snow packed and it doesn't look like it'll be cleared for a while. I have old salad shooters at home but they are 100 mi away (that's a long walk). Something that will get me to the interstate where the snow should be cleared.

I got some fot our ATV and Farm truck from http://www.tirechainsrequired.com/ before. It does not seem they list for a 315/35/17. I checked a few other sites and they dont have them either. I think since the sidewall is so small it is going to be hard to find them. If you do, make sure you re-tighten them after you install them(move a couple of feet back and forth), before you get a move on down the road. I had one come off my ATV once, it sucked

Has anyone ever tried chains or even cables on an LS1 with 245/50-16 s?
The manual claims that the clearance is insufficient.
