I put on the Rouski's in the fall and used them this past weekend. Worked awesome getting in and out of the gas station and along the edge of a paved road where in both cases there was no snow at all. The other guys had the tough time of lifting their sleds around because they couldn't steer on the pavement. Very well made for the ski that you are using. They have a sealed spring area and a new bolt replaces the existing ski bolt. I like having the hand lever to engage the wheels rather than the "foot" engage on the Rollerski. Here's the pictures up and down:

can you please do me a favor and measure the distance the ski is lifted off the ground in the center of the ski. directly under the spindle.
I am running snowtrackers and am unsure if these will provide proper clearance.
thanks I appreciate your help

The sled is in my garage 350 miles from me; I'll be back there on Feb 4th and can get you a measurement then. In the meantime here is the website with a phone number that you could call. Maybe they've had some experience with a setup like yours.

Thanks, ive already been in touch with them. They were not much help.
They were aware of snowtrackers but did not know if the wheels lifted the skis high enough for clearance.
If you had to take a guess at it, how high do you think the ski is off the ground?
Not holding you to anything just looking for a guess
Thanks

I'd say close to 2" (1/2 the height of the wheel which is between 4-5")

Just wanted to thank you for your help.
The rouski wheels came in and i got them mounted. They work awsome with the cat skis and snowtrackers!!
Thanks again for your input!

Can you give a little more info other than mountain skis?
Your signature says 07 attack. Are you using yamaha mountain skis? Or a different brand

Should be the same mounts the apex uses, I would think.
attack spindles and apex are the same I think, also check out the ski part Numbers
Skis should be part# 8FK-23711-00 if that's correct.
ski wheel kit should be
Rouski AC-L
or Kimpex 272472
