Snow Chains on w Lowered R56

Hello,
I will be driving my lowered (1inch) r56 from San Francisco to Spokane WA, and was wondering if anyone has been able to successfully fit chains or cables on their lowered car without destroying the inside of the wheel well. I am mainly concerned about passing through the snow chain checkpoints.

You can run them as long as you are not slammed, Did you test fit and see if they rub?

Talked about the chain options here: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...endations.html
