I've had three of the 4 models available for my Outbacks.

The basic pulls/drags over the sand better than no wheels. The problem with this one is that my spokes immediately started to bend and it seems they would be breaking before too much time. I got rid of those.

I bought the bigger wheels in sand tires in both the smaller (Trax 2) and larger size (Trax 2-30).

The Trax 2-30 rolls easily over anything ... ice plant, ravines, pot holes, curbs, ... but it's kind of big/clunky/heavy for my Outback, and it's too big to comfortably strap behind my bait tank. I always walk it back to my van.

I think I like the more convenient size of the Trax 2, but I don't have a strong opinion on either of these. Both are OK.

The difference in price between both Trax 2 models is $35. For this small price difference and on the recommendation of Ron at FastLane, I splurged for the "best" but I think it's basically a toss-up for my Outback. If I had a PA I would use the bigger of the two.
