I saw an old suburban that was for sale a few years ago with some of the mattracks. The for sale sign on it said $20,000, buy the tracks get the suburban free. They seem like the ultimate accessories and look AWESOME.

That is sick. I wonder if you can crawl at all with them? Probably not. Anybody know if they're street legal? At least in the winter?

The treads are rubber. They are street legal, but have a top speed of (if i remember correctly) 55 mph.

Wait, so you can change between these and tires?! I saw this before, but I thought it replaced the whole suspension... I know the first thing I'm buying when I get rich.

Yea they are rubber and I've seen them be used at well over 55 mph but then again the ones Ive seen were custom built by a local offroading shop where they build an sell them. It would cost me almost two grand a wheel and they can be swapped with a tire in about 5 mins per wheel....:wishing for money tree:

They are pretty sweet. They make a design which is $30,000 to $40,000 It uses a rim design. So say an XJ. they give you a 15 rim same bolt pattern and everything well then they bolt their equipment onto that rim which branches off into tracks, and yes they will beat tires offroading. I haven't seen them much on rock crawling so I couldn't tell you. But over snow, mud, sand, gravel they will beat tires. But tires are more fun!
