So far, so good. Best in Tires and Wheels

I have a set of Maxtrax and Pinto and they seem to be a bit more durable and flexible. When folded, they take up little space and can be used as leveling mats for your truck. You can also place them on items that have steps instead of planks that you risk breaking. Haven't used them in mud yet but they have worked well for me in sand and rocks.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • There are new competitors

BEST IN RECOVERY

Trust me guys these go threads are the best compared to all other sand trax like MAXTRAX MKII etc because I have personally used maxtrax and some others. However, the main difference of the Go-Thread is its lightweight design, it can be folded, and also the drawbar does not rely on the teeth of the Traks. becoz maxtrax goes bald after being used continuously for over 10 times for serious recovery. but Go Caterpillars are the best.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Functionality

wallet and save time.

How much would it cost to tow 3 miles on a sandy road 30 minutes from Joshua Tree, California? At least 5 times more money than the GoTreads set and several hours of waiting! They sat in my emergency camping box for several years, never opened or looked at. Well that changed yesterday. In short, a shovel, some sweat, some swearing, and a set of GoTreads saved me from myself. They were a little worn from the heat generated by the wheels turning. This was due to a traction control/operator error,

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Expandable

Self-healing just got easier!

Used twice a day for two different purposes. Put the chains behind the 4x4, centered high in the snow, slightly off-road, the car was able to get traction and come back. Gotreads saved them as there were no lifting hook points on the car. I used them as a positioning device in my Jeep as I drove down the hill toward the trees under two feet of snow. I set the front wheels to 4WD in the desired direction. I walked up the hill and rearranged the tracks several times until I got flipped. I could…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Not all will fit

Very happy with my Go Treads tracks.

Received my Go Treads yesterday and love the feel and durability. I do a lot of landscape photography here in Australia. I often pull off the road at a safe distance when I see a promising prospect. Unfortunately, I've gotten stuck in soft, wet, muddy ground several times. I needed to increase my chances of self-extraction. I did my research and discounted a number of products such as 4WD boards/tracks as they are known not to work well with street tires. It's too easy to spin the wheels and…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Goes with

Great product in the accessories and parts section

I was actually planning to buy a Maxtrax recovery track set when I stumbled across GoTreads and I'm so glad I did. In my opinion, GoTreads is much better at everything but spaces, and here's why: 1. Dragging. Traction on Maxtrax and similar recreational tracks depends on small lugs that tend to wear out or come loose as the wheel slips. Incidentally, Maxtrax's warranty doesn't cover this as they don't consider it a manufacturer defect. GoTreads have a much stronger self-centering tread pattern…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Has flaws
