    Got into a very wet and muddy field. Just spinning and spinning. Had to use the Amazon cheapo tracks and they did the job and got me going backwards. All in all excellent purchase that just paid for itself.

    This has been my experience with the same nittos. Soon as you get into light mud poof you have racing slicks.

    I have the X-bull also and can't really complain about them. I have used them a couple times without issue.

    If you don’t go crazy they will last quite a while.

    I plan on picking up some of the X Bull boards. Seems like worth of a shot for under $100.

    Why not? Better than nothing even if they only work one time for ya. I am adding a $600 winch right now and the thought of coughing up $1200 on traction boards for my recovery bag of tricks makes me wanna puke. Just be aware of the proper use and the recovery board limitations and I think you’ll be better off than not having them in certain situations. I’ve touched the real maxtrax though and they are a quality piece of plastic with a premium price.

    Doesn’t matter what tire you have. The only way to remove that shit is wheel spin!
