paddle tires in snow?

[Honda4life05]

Has anyone ever tried using paddle tires in the snow? I live in Iowa an we get a good amount of snow. They would probly be easy to puncture riding in woods but i would ride in open fields. jus wonderin if anyone has tried em'.

Idk, my friends and i were gona do that this winter on our dirtbikes. I think it would work fairly well. Though in the light snow you wouldnt get too much push off of it since its so light. But in the packed snow or the sticky snow i believe it would work well.

they work fairly well but the 4-snows work better imo

it seems the paddle tires would work better due to the taller paddels. but they might have to be angled to work like the 4 snows r.

the paddles pull just as good in a straight line but where the 4 snows really shine is when it comes to side to side. the paddles will spin you out VERY easily. even on a wet lawn lmao
