Just ordered a set of 2” spacers and emailed Windy Ridge about the Ofa chains.

:thumbsup: Surprisingly they had a lot of them in stock when I bought mine, I thought I would have had to order them. Where did you get the spacers from?

I would buy a set of studded cross chains like this. TIGER - DOUBLE STUDDED FARM, GRADER, & LOADER CHAINS
It might be a bit of over kill for where you are, but I have regular H chains on the rear and I went for an "exciting" ride down an icy hill last winter; I had to drop the loader and logging winch to get regain control and spent about 2 hours getting back up the hill.

Ordered from Bro-Tek.

Though honestly if I knew they were Canadian I would have bought elsewhere.

I love mine. Can't imagine a winter without them.

I picked these up in 2016 for my Massey 1529 which has R4 tires. Got them from tirechains.com The only reason I need them is for snow removal in my yard and driveway here in northern MN. I'm not doing field work in any kind of mud, etc. I occasinally am on the highway with them to drive to my neighbors to help them....they aren't the best for highway travel (kind of bumpy). I don't run chains on the front tires. For my needs, this setup works.

This is what Windy Ridge gave me for prices:

27x8.50-15 $85.00
15 x 19.5 $490.00

The email stated they are in stock, did not specify which exact model they are.

My OFA Eko 8 chains to fit 15 x 19.5 tires were $515 from Reed Supply, so those sound as though they are in the ballpark.

If they are Ofa Eko 8 chains, I would jump on them. Even though the current steel tariffs do not cover chains, prices of anything with significant steel content in the US tend to be jumping up. You are certainly not likely to see a price decrease, and you may just beat an increase if they have them in stock.
