One of my 123's has loaded 6-12's with chains and that's all, I weigh in about 150, my Brother a little more and my Daughter quite a bit less (I know "what's good for me" so my wife is off limits in this particular thread) it pushes snow great no matter who's operating it.

I'm sure however, that we don't get the kind of snow here that you guys get there, so you may need a little more weight.

I find that narrow front tires make a huge difference, not so much with forward traction but along the lines of maneuverability.

I do have others with blades and different sized tires and chains, but I really prefer narrow turfs and chains to anything else. Going to try my 149 with loaded ag's and one pair of IH weights this year but I'm betting it will spend most of the winter setting, until I put a pair of loaded turfs and chains on it.
