Over the tire tracks?

[Fundy View]

Anybody have any experiance with the over the tire track systems for skid steers,looking for a set for working in the woods alot with a brush cutter/mulcher?

We had a set on a Case 95XT. They definitely did help, but don't get the impression they float you like dozer tracks, they won't. Great for in muddy places though, beats pawing and spinning tires.

One thing we did do, was foam fill the tires. One particular job where we did a lot of turning in a 14' culvert cleaning sediment out of.., it popped the tires of the rims like 3 times. Foam filled, and never had another problem.

And heard it is best to run a little slack in them, as it's tough on bearings if tight. Mud and fine debris only make them tighter.

I agree with DJ54. I would suggest checking with the skid steer manufacturer and see what's their recommendation is on tracks. Some machines are not designed for tracks.
