Huh... I've NEVER had any performance issues with my open guide horn tracks, and I even have the late steel rimmed version wheels on it too. Of course I don't drive it like a race car OR go into a fast neutral turns with any of my tanks either. Common sense prevails on everything though.
I just like the looks they offer and they don't really weigh THAT much at all as only half of the weight of ALL tracks are transferred to the tanks suspension. The other half is on the ground just adding to the tanks total curb weight.
