The chains will never be shorter than when they are new. You may have to take out one or more cross chains, hang them up in a place that you will forget if you ever need them. Put the chains on the tires, cut off the excess leaving about five links, just to make it easy to hook up the next time.
The less tread you have, the better the ladder type works. New or fifty percent plus tread needs one of the types that will not fall in between the bars, or has such big links that they stick up above the tread anyway. The DUO-GRIP style is the next step up, they are ladder chains with the cross chains linked in pairs so they can not fall in between the treads. They are not really too aggressive for pavement, but I wouldn't' run any chains on dry pavement continuously. What you don't want on pavement is any type with studs, bars, or other additions to the basic link.
