== == == == I had the same question and although it doesn't specifically state that they are legal, the IL State DMV website has the following article on winter-time vehicle safety which includes a recommendation to carry tire chains in your car. http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:k6ctNYJm7l0J:dot.state.il.us/winter.html+tire+chains+laws+Illinois&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=us
