I have been looking for replacement tracks for my machine. Had anyone bought replacement tracks for their machine through an aftermarket company? If so, who and how much? What brand?

I have checked with Carlton and they are $660 a piece plus freight. I talked to a company called Raymar and they have a Brand called J Tracks (GTW) Stainless Steel banding quality tracks 230x56x72 $ 419.00 ea. plus freight.

Sounds like a good deal. Does anyone know if these are good tracks or if they will fit like the stock bridgestones? Thanks.

You really do "get what you pay for", when it comes to rubber tracks. I have read a lot about aftermarket tracks on some other forums. I don't think anyone posting, has had any luck with aftermarket rubber tracks on anything. I would personally stick with the Bridgestone OEM tracks.I think you should be able to buy them a little cheaper by going with a source other than Carlton. However, I really don't think Carlton prices are unreasonable for the most part.

I just bought last summer bought a set of tracks for my 8018 from a place in Georgia called rubbertrax . They were the cheapest I found and I had them in a couple days. I think I paid right around $900 including truck freight. When I called carlton they wanted like $250 for freight. I think I saved right around $500 buying them from rubber trax. Here is rubbertrax number (770) 760-1227

Bridgestone doesn't make those tracks anymore.

Another source I would check would be McClaren. They are out of California and there tracks were very simular to the Bridgestone tracks.

OOPS, time for plan "B". I would check with the company that makes the undercarriage/track systems for Carlton. I think that model 7015, has tracks from Chermack Machine, in Wisconsin. See what brands of rubber tracks they recommend.

Thank you for the tip! I just ordered a new set of tracks through Rubbertrax. Definitely the best price and best service! If you need tracks call Chris at Rubbertrax!
