[QUOTE="brdgbldr, post: 126197, member: 7474"] Wider tracks spread out the weight of the machine. So if you are going to work in soft soil that is deep wide tracks are good. They will keep you from sinking in. Narrower tracks will give you better traction on more solid surfaces since the weight is higher per square foot of track. In my experience tracks are not good for snow on any type of slope. They act like two sleds under the machine. On flat surfaces they do fine. You may want to ask the dealer what types of tracks they offer. The type of tread and material they are made with can make a huge difference with traction, how much they tear up the surface and how fast they wear out. [/QUOTE]
