Now that I've got some time in the snow with them...
For their purpose of not marking asphalt, they're great.
Level ground and "slight" grade performance they're good.
Steep grade with a snow / a little ice, HANG ON , even with the bucket or rear blower down she's usually going to slide.
I can't say they're a total bust but I did order a set of 2 link ladders . I figured a few "scuffs" on the drive was better than smashing the tractor or getting hurt .
They were on 10-16.5, r4's. If I had a relatively level drive, I would buy them again but maybe my hills are to steep for steel.
We'll see.
