Re: Tank Treads
234 used treads on our 2004 robot that were specifically made for climbing stairs and for great traction. The most unique feature is the 24mm pitch...they are some of the most aggressive treads around! We were very pleased and they were easy to work with.

Re: Tank Treads
1141 used a pair of old snowblower treads for our first year. They didn't give us a huge amount of traction, mainly because our drill motors were unscrewing themselves from our drivetrain, and if we tried to push, we'd put ourselves out for the match. If you're looking for the cheap direction to go, they cost us a trip to the dump.
