No chains!

This is a REALLY bad idea.

The only corrrect solution is to buy a set of snow tires/wheels for the car.
One of your primary problems with the MXX3's or any other ultra hi-po tire
is that they don't work when cold. The temperature drops and they turn into
ball bearings, even with minimal snow on the road.  These tires are designed
to work at higher temps.  Chains and cables can not only chew up your tire
and rim, but when they come loose (and they ALL come loose) they will play
hell with your paint and fenders in addition to wrapping themselves up
around your axles.
