I am considering installing a set of steel tracks on a S250 Bobcat that is working on demolition and truck loading to reduce time down after heavy rain. I noticed the only brand you seem to mention is Loegerings. Have you ever heard of "eTerra" brand. Have a look

Has anyone heard or seen them. They do look the ticket, in fact almost too rough.

I have not had any experience with that brand, although they look simular to the Grouser and McLaren brands of bar tracks. I have a set of the McLarens on my 773 and I can tell you I have no complaints about them aside from they are vary hard on turf. The 1" square bars will punch into lawns and gravel roads on the first pass.
I wanted them for working in dirt and snow, and the open design prevents wet snow from packing on the inside of the track.
I also run Tracks Plus, which float better (and install easier) because of less weight, and the larger shoe is easier on turf, but thye will only run in dry snow.
