I like to just get a meaty guitar tone for each player and do one rhythm track on each side, and then layer any other parts that are necessary. I'm not personally a fan of quad-tracking as I feel it tends to muddy up the overall sound a bit, and it strips out a lot of the raw character and energy that I like to hear in guitar-heavy bands. Sometimes it can be really cool, but most of the time it's not my thing. I like to hear the guitarist using his hands, not just a big wall of distortion.
