[QUOTE="Idoitall, post: 10585, member: 836"] I live in the South, so snow is not an issue for us. For me, it would be mud, not snow, so either rubber or steel tracks would likely work OK. Very few chains seen around here any more, as most folks would not even know what they are and what they look like. But reading the forum, I would think about this and which traction aid you might choose. Consider the cost, the difficulty to install/remove, maintenance, and for sure the surface(s) that you will be working on, especially if you will be working for others. Both steel tracks and chains will chip both concrete and asphalt drives and lots, especially with repeated use. You would not want to have to repair these for someone else. Just something to think about. There are many members here with lots of experience with all this, so check back. [/QUOTE]
