I just picked up a 137x 1.352 track for my 600 etec renegade. Looking at different stud options and not sure which way to go. From what I can find, my options are 1.5" or 1.375". Im concerned on both fronts. Is the 1.375 too short and accomplishing nothing? Is the 1.5 too long and going to tear up the track? This is a single ply track so I realize I need the studs with bigger heads. Under one of the stud manufacturers web sites I found another track that had the 1.352 lug height and the cart said to go with 1.375. Any pointers would be appreciated...

I think the 1.5 is fine poss still to short. Ideal was 3/8 past lug you may want to go bigger.you will have just over 1/8 past lug with a 1.35 track that will not hook up on ice

I studded a 144 assault, and that is correct to use the 1.375" studs, the reason being the flexibility of the lugs (on the cobra). The 1.5 would be a different story, and you would need the extra length in the studs. My studded cobra is having some durability issues, don't get me wrong its a awesome track, but I don't think it will hold up as long as a studded 1.5 ripsaw. IMO

I just put a 121" cobra track on my iq. This thing handles a lot better than the previous track that I had the studs on. Why do you want studs? Have you ridden it enough to know that you want them?

Unless you're riding on ice I see no need for studs. If you hit icy corners just know the machine and take them slow. Imho
