Yep. There are many variations.
Smooth pads are to minimize damage. Not effective in hard digging.
Steel cleated pads are generally preferred. Some variations are more radical and do considerable damage to terrain while being most effective at reducing machine movement.
Rubber pads are generally used on improved surfaces and paving.
If you build cleated pads leave two edges open so they don't pack full so easily.
