    The rubber blocks on the steel pads are great if you are only ever on tarmac and concrete but if you also go in the mucky stuff it gets in between the pad and the block and pushes them apart eventually popping them off.

    That was my experience after I put them on every single pad on a 22t Sumitomo in Oz and then I had to take them all off again on site. By hand. :(

    I got tracks a few years ago from a company in Wales called Evans and Reid. Google them and you can find them. I found them great to deal with.

    On their advice I change the sprocket wheels when changing the tracks. They were dead right to do so. The exchange rate has shifted against you a little, but still good value.
