I've run prowler, rubbertrax, Bridgestone, and camoplast. So far the camoplast have been the best.

Bridgestone here! Titan owns Goodyear i believe and the Titan tractor tire also has lots of issues.Lots of info on another forum that i visit.Very few has good things to say about them and Goodyear.Better know as(Good for a Year),because they hardly make it that long.
I'm sticking with what has worked for me,got 2100 hours out of my original Bridgestone track with the C pad tread.Went with the Bridgestone Polor Tread tracks and they are super in the mud and dirt for me.Good luck

Just to clarify, Titan does not own Goodyear. Titan bought the farm tractor tire line from Goodyear, and continues to manufacture the tires for Goodyear, under the Goodyear name because of a licensing agreement. They also bought a plant in Brazil from Goodyear that makes some off road tires, and continue to manufacture those tires for Goodyear under the Goodyear name. Basically, they are a subcontractor to Goodyear, producing tires for them under license.

I learned the expensive way, too. I now only run ITR tracks on my TL150s. Most of the time, I now change them because they're bald, with some seeing over 2200 hours. I have 3 very abused TL150s.
We are still working on it with the Better Business Bureau. They are claiming no liability. We will see what happens. Thank you to all for your recommendations. I hope to get this resolved soon and get my TL150 back going soon. I miss it and have several jobs ready.

Well, I had to get the machine up and going again. I went intending to get an ITR track from my local dealer, but they were out of my size. So I ended up getting one from Passini. It was just slightly more expensive, but a good looking track. What a chore it was to change a track on a muddy slope, in the rain, with little room to work with. But I got it done. Now back to work while the BBB is still working on my case.
