Lot's of good info. I think we are all looking for the best front snow tire. I don't think they've made it yet. I just bought V61s for my super. Can't wait to try them. Stock turfs don't cut it as said above. Especially with the heavy 54" Haban blade loaded with snow. That's a whole lotta weight out there. good point about the smaller blade. My old 800 MTD with a 46" arnold blade would have a real hard time moving a full blade of heavy snow. Often there is no choice but to take smaller bites. With the larger blade you can always take smaller bites in the deep stuff and big once in the light stuff. It's hard to Make a shorter blade longer. However the shorter blade is much more manueverable in tight spots. It's all a trade off. Every snowstorm is different. Now if I just had 2 Supers! One for the blade and one for the blower. or better yet add a 3rd for a FEL.
Oh yes once you go hydraulic lift + angle you'll never go back.
