Winter will be here before we know it. Summer sure did seem to fly buy!
I had tire chains on my X475 and the thing was just awesome for plowing snow. I kept my 54" blade and bought the new front mount, but have not purchased tire chains. With the blade or loader on the front and my ballast box on the rear, I would have to think that is plently of weight for pushing snow, but I do know that chains just add so much to traction.
Looks like the chains I would want to get (4 link v-bar ladder) run about $212 plus the tensioners at $45 per pair plus a load binder for installation plus shipping puts me at $300-$350.

So you guys with the 2320's, 2520's and 2720's, what is your thoughts on tire chains for these size tractors?
