Default Ref snow chains

Hi i am a new member to the forum and have owned my xc 60 se lux 4 AWD for almost 12 months.Before that an XC 90 and before that 850 T5 and very pleased with them all.

I travel a lot on the continent and currently there is about 9 inches of snow about. I was looking at snow chains as even with the 4wd it is still easy to loose traction when all 4 wheels are on ice

I read an american article about the Rud chains and was very impressed and I thank you for the link as I did not realise Volvo recommends one sided chains.

The question: Is it one set or two as on steep declines it is still possible for the rear to slip out?

Any body with experience who could advise ?

Thank you
