    Hey, i've a question on "wheel spikes".

    I have the 450X, and it's working well.

    However, my lawn can be quite wet at times, drainage isn't great, and it has a few slopes. It does get stuck every so often, as they all do. I have the "terrain kit" wheels from Husqvarna. It's better, but it still gets stuck at times, sliding off the slope and past the boundary wire.

    I saw aluminum "wheel spikes".

    Has anyone used these yet? I read they also have the benefit of partially aerating your lawn while it works. But I have a reservation about what it might do to the docking station pad over time.

    Anyone experience with them?

    Thank you.
    D.

    Update: If it help anyone else, I ended up getting these wheel spikes for my Automower 450X. They fit great and work really well. Made a big difference in grip, especially for Irish weather. Would definitely recommend it if you have any sort of difficult slopes or damp terrain: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204741194870

    Would they cause strain on the wheel motors?
