Combination of wheel weights, washer fluid in tires, and chains. When I had my 128 I used 8.50s instead of 10.50s and I had better traction. If you really want traction, chain up some 6-12s and throw 150-200# of wheel weights on them. The problem with wider tires is that they float over the snow and ice instead of digging in, which is why I've never understood people's desire to install the largest, widest possible tires they can on these tractors. They are of no benefit unless you're driving through a mud pit or the extra width is needed for stability. Otherwise, narrower is better, although 6-12 rears look pretty dumb on anything WF on up, IMO.
