Ideally you would want to put snow chains on all 4 wheels of a vehicle, this will give you the best traction for braking, turning, and accelerating. Otherwise, if one set of chains is used you would then want to put them on the primary drive wheels of the vehicle. Which in your case should be the rear wheels.

However, you should check the owners manual of your vehicle for restrictions and snow chain usage recommendations as well.
