A nice 1” lug would be perfect for this sled. Even a 1.25 depending on what you want to do with it and if you will be studded or not.

I know 1" is stock. Was thinking of going bigger and definitely studding. Never done that. Any recommendations on tread patterns?

Go bigger and don't stud. There just is not shite for room under the 94-96 platforms.
I got an 1.5 to somewhat fit w/ 8 tooth drivers. But even then I still had to trim down to 1.25 where the tunnel coolers would make contact.
A 1" w/ stock 9 tooth drivers is all you are going to be able to stuff in there.
2.52” pitch drivers inches to Metric (rounded to nearest mm)
10 tooth 8.021” diameter 204 mm
9 tooth 7.219” diameter 183 mm
8 tooth 6.417” diameter 163 mm

a 1" talon or ice ripper would be the ticket for that sled. i would lean towards the ice ripper if price is not a problem.

Alrighty well looks like popular opinion is the stock 1". So any where in particular is a good dealer for tracks. Like I said never done this before.

Believe it or not, a 1" is an upgrade. Stockers were 3/4" I believe. 7/8ths at thee veeeery most.Alrighty well looks like popular opinion is the stock 1".
I'd probably look for a Hacksaw or it's prestudded version Ice Attack. Providing you have the coin that is.

Alrighty guys found a couple tracks from Composit that look good for good money one is 1.10" and the other is 1.25". Motstly gonna run this thing in my backyard which is a 5 acre field and any trails I can find. So which would be the better decision with no studs? Thanks for all the advice so far.
