[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 29632, member: 307"] I think they are great if you need them for mud. But just like a ctl the operating expense goes up considerably and they put more demand on the engine to turn them compared to tires. I think this is why you only seem to see them on the larger machines with more hp. Don't believe they are the hot setup for snow. Most ctls have poorer traction then a wheel machine. Also while the renters would like them in summer your bottom line may suffer because of higher maintenance costs. Rip a tire there goes $150, rip a track and its more like $2000 Ken [/QUOTE]
