They look like like Duo-grips but seem to have more shine to them. You don't have to have all the rubber bungee straps on them. I put bungee straps on my chains when I first got them and it caused the cross chains to get pulled in between the lugs. I took the bungee straps off the chains and the cross chains wouldn't get stuck in between the lugs. Looking at your pictures, you will see what I'm talking about. In the top picture, 1 cross chain is in the lugs and in the bottom picture, both cross chains are pulled between the lugs together, which defeats the purpose of having chains. Tractor chains do not have to be real tight like truck chains. They also self clean a lot better when they're looser because they fall off the tire a little bit when they come off the ground. I have the same style of chains on my MF135 and they work way better without the rubber straps. You could experiment and see what works better for you. Dave
