Max Tracks or Ricks Tracks?

[Rick111]

As I stated I have been in contact with TRED head office, they said to keep wheel spin to a minimum, but at least they are willing to back their product with a LIFETIME warranty, and that is why I am buying TREDS and not MAXTacks which only offer a 2 year warranty.

I have never used my Maxtrax for myself, and they have already lost a heap of lugs from someone else spinning their tyres all over them .......

Just be careful, apply power gently, and you will be ok ....

Your original method was better in most cases as wheel spin cant destroy the plastic grates

Thanks guys for your replies. The thing that really killed them was the wheel spin, which TREDS & MAX tracks advise to keep to a minimum. As I said i am now purchasing the TREDS as they give a LIFETIME warranty compared to MAX Traks 2 year warranty. I really think after my experience that even the MAX Tracks will fail after a few years, which is why I think they only give a 2 year warranty.
After handing over my hard earned money, I would much rather have the security of knowing mine are covered for a LIFETIME. Of course the other problem is usually things under a specific warranty will fail after the 2 year period, even if they have never been used.
Thats just my 2 cents worth, but you make up your own minds.

I don't think Tred's will cover you for wheelspin causing the lugs to melt ....... only manufacturing defects .....
