I am using a Johndeere plow on my Craftsman lawn tractor. I had little to no traction even with light snow. I thought I would have to invest in chains and wheel weights. After reading many reveiws I decided to try the chains first and buy the weights if still had tire spinning. The chains work so well I am not going to purchase the weights. Plowing the snow will make piles, so do plenty of space managment so you have room to push the snow later in the season.
