Default Tire Chains?

Tried the search but got nothing...
I'm going up to Mammoth Mtn to go snowboarding tomorrow and I think I'm taking the Z. What size tire chains are we? Stock wheels/tires...

Ahh Mammoth, I'm jealous. This will be my first New Years in a while not being in Mammoth or Tahoe.

Don't even do it man. Chains are killer, especially on cars like the Z. Sure there is nothing else you can drive? I'm an avid Mammoth Mt boarder, also from Diego, and I once took my bagged s10 up there. It was horrible.

I'd go for a rent-a-car or van with some buddies if you can.

+1 on the rent a car.

99% sure the book that came with the car says "No Chains". You could try spider spikes (maybe, they would know) but they would cost you more than the rental, have a top speed of 30 and would not show up in time.

Thanks for the advise...I did it without chains! Shame on me I know but it was actually hot up there like 80 deg and I was sweating in my snow-jacket. Fun nonetheless, I"ll post pics of the trip when I find my data cable. WooT!
