Haven't had a chance to talk to the guy who had a set on his quad. First saw these featured in a TV show about four years ago showing a typical 4WD half ton truck running on sand dunes down in S. Cal. so they are good year round for off road vehicles. You could alway ask about pricing for a set for your Jeep. I suspect they do not show pricing in order to give their dealer some latitude.

What do they run? I notice no prices on the website, which leads me to believe they are expensive. is it about $2500 per wheel, or for installation? Got any good used sets up there for $2500? ;-) Something like this would be fun for winter and mud season! The mattracks look very nice. What do they run?

In BC at least it is legal to drive the japanese mini-trucks on the road and the local mini-truck dealer will fit mattracks on the mini-truck for around $2500. One local ATV user has mattracks on his quad machine. The local logging roads are impassable until around June. Last year I was stopped by snow drifts in May while driving up in the high country behind our house. Locally a popular option is mattracks.
