I took the 1872 out for a "traction test" of the new filled Tru-Power Ags and V61 rib tires. We got some slight Ice and snow and it was really slick. About an inch deep. I could not make the tires spinn or slide no matter how hard I tried. Even on the Hill that I had spunn tires all the way up in my car. With the old turfs with only wheel weights I probably could have been out doing donuts! I was pretty impressed with the way the fluid in the tires made them hook up. I'm glad I filled the fronts as well as the rears. The old turfs used to push around badly with the plow on. The V61s I couldn't make slide either. Of course things will be different with the plow on and deeper snow. I'm still pretty sure this will be a big improvement. Traction is good!
