I personally like 1.36 and we run double backers up the middle. This pevents tear outs, especially on the outside of your track. Depending on what your planning on doing, 96 is good for traction and breaking on your average trails. If you need more hook up you can go with a lot more!

I use to run 96 when I picked up my 03 but I had way to much track spin so I went with 192 if you ain't an aggressiverider 144 is plenty oh they 1.375 woodys

96 would be plenty for traction. When I bought my sled in 05, I got sick of being beat by a 550 polaris with studs. I put studs on and what a difference in both traction and breaking. Breaking is where you really need them. Also on ice when going up or down a steep hill.

Hey Mike, Contact Rich motorsports. He is a website sponsor and has really good deals on studs. He will get you the studs,backers and pattern and save you money. He sold me 2 sets 3 years ago and I have been very happy with them! I have a cutting tool to use, so you do not need to buy one of those.
http://www.richmotorsports.com/store/index.php I would suggest a phone call rather than ordering on line. That way you can get exactly what you need.
