Looks like i'm going to have bite the bullet and buy some new tracks for my 287. Talk about sticker shock!! Anybody tried any off brand tracks? How did they hold up etc. etc.
Thanks
Pete

Bought 2 sets of tracks (one for a 297C and one for a 287C) from Rubbertrax. So far, they have held up pretty good. They were about $3600 a set. Time will only tell but in our type of conditions, I think they will last as long as OEM.

$3600 is better than $3300 each from the dealer.I'm also looking for any repair ideas for a rip across the width of the track.
