Double ring chains work real good in fields and deep snow, twist link chains will work better on hard packed snow and ice and frozen drivesways pavement etc.. They also ride smoother on hard surfaces. I don't know how flat an area you will be on, but if you have any kind of a slope or ditch bank that you will have to back up from after pushing snow off to the side with out chains and a lot of rear weight to offset all of that front end weight you will have problems. On my Oliver 1550 with a loader, my tires are loaded, twist link chains and a 10 ft. back blade, I will still dig and chew at times when I drop The front end in low spot and have to back out, especcially up a grade.
Have fun
