Has anyone tried Goodyear's tracks for skidsteers? http://www.goodyearag.com/img/rubbertrack/trackmanmanual.pdf
They look like they would offer more floatation than the steel or loegering tracks that I have seen through Bobcat or Grouser Products (http://www.grouser.com/) They also look as if they would do less damage than steel tracks to turf, but still offer good traction in dirt or mud. I priced a set through my local Goodyear dealer and they were nearly double the price of steel tracks because you need special tools for the installation and special sized wheels for the track to ride over. The Goodyears priced out about $6000 including frieght, installation tools, and new tires and wheels. Grouser Products were about $3300 including frieght, no special tools or tires needed.
Any input for people with experience with any over the tire tracks would be appreciated.
