Tire chains - which ones?

I am planning on getting a set of tire chains for my D. It has new P235/75R15 tires on it. When looking at tire chains at the local store, I see ones available for that size, listed as Passenger car chains, but they also have "Light Truck Chains" for LT235/75R15 tires (at twice the price). Even though I have a heavy vehicle, can I just get away with the Passenger car set since my tires are P235s and not LT235s (what is the difference?).

Should I get 2 sets and have front and rear chains, or just 1 set for the rear? I've never used chains on all 4 wheels before - but I would assume it is an improvement in a 4wd vehicle (otherwise if you just use them on the rear, it would seem you are turning it back into a 2wd truck)

I assume there are no clearance issues in the front or rear with chains on the D? It seems like there should be plenty of room (espically since I only have 15")

Thanks
Matt
