After watching every YouTube video of J-Wheelz, I’m pretty convinced that they are worth the investment. No, they won’t do everything tracks will do and they add a lot of width but nothing is perfect.
-about a 1/4 of the price of tracks
-with a portable driver, on/off in 10 minutes
-very little extra wear on the machine
-likely better in swamp than tracks
-very little added weight
Anyone use them on a P500?
Check out J-Wheelz on YouTube. (No I’m not a dealer)
Haven’t bought yet but for my hunting applications, they look pretty good.

Had to look it up.
In my area they want last 30 mins.
But. Snow, swamp, skeg with wide trails. Ya, I can see how they would help.

Na, I'll pass.

I have a set on my 1000 during winter snow runs. Only used 2 times. First time was awesome, soft fluffy dry snow on forest service roads. We were breaking the trail for the rest of our group. They really helped keeping the rig on top of the snow. The second time was last spring on the same roads but the snow had warmed up and gotten really heavy, it ended up breaking the 4 mounting bolts off on the rear passenger wheel, that hold them to their special lug nuts. Mostly my fault it could have been avoided. But kinda comparing apples to oranges, your rig to a 1000 with five people in it.

If you do get them you will definitely want to upgrade the mounting hardware from the 2 bolt mounting to the 4 bolt mounting set up. It’s like $50 extra
