Chains Tire chains for a BX-23.

Junk - thiose cross link bars look like they will also trash a driveway in a heartbeat.

Skip the chains and buy a spare set of BX23 AG Bar Tires and wheels ( $ 200) . When mowing season is over, swap wheels.

There are times when turfs just won't work....trying to dig with the front end loader is when you really need the AG's, as well as any mud operations whatsoever. Snow is less of an issue actually....I've run mine with turfs and AG's in deeps snow and it only slides little with the turfs.

Good luck

I have used them on my paved driveway and have never had any damage to the driveway with them. I will admit that they can do a lot of damage if your driveway isn't a quality job or you start spinning the wheels and are not moving. I would use the bar chains on a dirt driveway, and the standard link 2 link chain on a paved driveway for the least amount of friction damage. As I have said in the past, everyone's conditions and needs are different and they must decide for themselves what is best. The pictures are to show the differences to those that are not experienced with these items..... as the old expression goes.... a picture is worth a 1000 words.... Junk.....

Mike,

I have a used set of v-bar ice chains that will fit your BX (rear set). I still have them from my old BX. PM me if you are interested.

I have several sets of chains from various trucks and quads. Is there a way to measure them to see if I can use them safley on my BX before I go buy another set?

Tractor Tire Chains is actually Wallingford's Inc. They dont state it openly, but the saqme address and phone number sorta give it away. Killer quality from what I'm told.
