The Lowe's in Gilford has snow-blower tire chains, made by MTD, that cost about $75.98 for two chains ....... which seems very expensive. Could be a tire store like the Tire Warehouse could install studs into the old tires for about $10/each.

I used to have an 8-hp Toro snow-blower with studded tires and it did a real good job of scratching up the wood deck, and scratching the masonry walkways in my mega-million dollar, waterfront mcmansion... but it did get better traction going up the hill through icy conditions.

And, as of Sunday, Jan 17, the Gilford Lowe's has about 20 different Troy-Bilt snowblowers in stock selling now for 10% off. That's a good deal for this time in the winter, now.
