[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 131952, member: 13825"] they do work and will make a big difference on traction, but as to if they will get damaged or torn off the tracks, it sort of comes down to the surface your driving them on and location and what they are driving over as are you using them on pavement with snow on it, or off road over logs and big rocks and stumps and such?(you mentioned hills in your other post, gravity can add down force when sliding backwards down a slick slope and sudden traction on a chain can for sure possibly cause it to be torn off or worse) all things have there limits and weak links , but yes adding chain will add traction same as screw in studs for tracks, but also keep in mind using studs or chains,m can also damage the surfaces there run on, as in damaging pavement/concrete and likes! so, like everything else , a lot depends on what your asking the machine, tracks, chains to do! not every tool is right for the job , even with mods!, so have to be honest and ask what your looking to do and or need it to do!
