I have heard that steel ( w/ what cleat?) is also rough in snow because of clods sticking to it any where, giving an uneven pair of wheels. However, I think it would be neat to experiment with in different conditions (snow, soil etc.)if you are set up and have a rubber tired tractor on stand- by. I saw a McDeering 10-20 on steel at a tractor pull and thought he'd dig in and go, but it spun out early! He was an experienced driver, too. I have a 10-20(not operational) with steel and rubber- always wanted to play with both sets to see and experience how it handled. Chains and some extra weight make a big difference, though. Be careful on the ice! Steel can slip and slide easy! I saw a fellow loading a steel wheeled tractor onto a trailer and he slipped off! Had to use a hoe to lift it back. Thank God nobody got hurt!Let us know what you may encounter. I think steel would spin eventually and you could get stuck in snow.....
