Snow tires / chains

2016 X5d here and living now in rural Connecticut (just south of Massachusetts border) - any experience with snow tires or snow chains would be helpful. I live in a ski area now but there's not been a ridiculous amount in recent years and will be traveling on roads that are a mix of interstates back to NYC, state roads and some country roads too - so plowing may be inconsistent.

AFAIK if I go with tires I need to consider rims, pressure sensors and having install and storing the all seasons. Chains on the other hand are slightly more use-based but it looks like they can scratch rims if not properly attached.

What are everyone's experiences? Any advice?
