Hi Gadgetnut, Yes those are the chains I bought for my 29" R4 tires. I haven't put them on yet but they are supposed to fit my 29x10.5x15" tires. You may have 27" tires which are standard on the Toolcat.
The R4's on my Toolcat do not grip as well as the AG tires on my MF tractor even with true 4WD on steep, slippery slopes but 500 lbs of sand has helped (to a degree), although I can feel the strain on the engine when plowing or blowing up the steep (12%+) slopes since adding the weight. Ideally, I'd rather just have the chains on and forego the extra weight. We'll see, I'll test things out this winter. Next big snow forecast and the chains are going on.
