I have a B2920 with turf tires and I decided to get some chains for plowing and for work in the woods / on a steep hill in the snow. There is very little clearance on the inner front side of the rear tires and the frame. The chains do clear, but they rub very slightly (just enough to scratch the paint). Nothing is binding and I used it to plow the other day with no issues (traction is fantastic).
My question is do other folks have this issue and am I in danger of doing any long term damage here? I imagine I'll have to touch up the paint in that area after the winter. I'm not sure if it's the actual tractor frame or maybe the BH subframe I'm rubbing. I can put wheel spacers on it, but that is a lot of effort, probably requires a trip to the dealer given the weight of the loaded tires and will cost at least $300...
If anyone has any ideas or tricks those are welcome too!
