I haven't tried skid shoes on my rear blade, but have them on my front blade (8' converted truck plow). They work ok on pavement, but gouge down too far on gravel. Then they become useless. Or worse than useless because of the deep tracks they leave behind as they plow through the ground. If the ground was frozen solid, I think they'd work just fine, but that's rarely the case here in VA.
Wheels instead of shoes.
