Wheel Traction Pads R300

Post by hugmin42 »

What do you think of these tracks?

I've read all the other topics on whether to have tracks at all or not, but for this price would this make sense to have it rather than nothing?

Definitely better than nothing. Looks like they're pretty light weight and fold up to take very little space - nice features given that it's supposed to be break resistant - but .... the surface grip pattern looks like it's not aggressive enough (on sand should be OK but where there is wetness, you might end up slipping on the pads instead on the mud). :think:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

SADLY


Passenger vehicles -- maybe will work.

4X4 -- Will destroy those, never to be seen again.
Hot and Sweaty -- Nice if you with a Lady---BAD if you in the Jungle.
