Two of the most-shopped 4-season UTV track systems on the market. The Camso 4S1 is the volume default — a balanced 4-season track for full-size UTV recreational and light-work users. The Kimpex WSS4 takes a different approach: wider footprint, shorter lug pitch, optimized for soft-snow flotation.
Bottom line
- Deep snow / soft-ground priority: Kimpex WSS4. Wider stance delivers measurably more flotation.
- Balanced 4-season use, mixed conditions: Camso 4S1. Better all-around fit for typical full-size UTV users.
- Trailer / storage constraints:4S1 has a narrower stance — easier on a 6.5' trailer.
- Canadian buyer: Kimpex has the local dealer advantage.

Where the Kimpex WSS4 wins
- Deep-snow flotation.The wider footprint plus shorter lug pitch delivers measurably better performance in 18"+ snow.
- Soft-ground work. Peat, saturated pasture, bog access — flotation matters and the WSS4 has more of it.
- Hardware family. Shares fasteners with the Commander HD4 — if you might step up to heavy-duty later, the parts pipeline stays consistent.
- Canadian buyers.Kimpex's home market — local dealer access tends to be stronger.
Where the Camso 4S1 wins
- Mixed-condition versatility.The 4S1 isn't specialized — it handles snow, mud, and packed trail without being optimized for one.
- Narrower stance.Better trailer fit. A 6.5' trailer that comfortably held the bare UTV may not comfortably hold a WSS4-equipped one.
- Hard-ground performance.On packed trail, gravel road, and dry surfaces, the 4S1's shorter footprint is faster and less stressful on the drivetrain.
- US dealer network. Camso has the largest powersports dealer footprint in the US — parts are typically easier to source.
- Brand-ecosystem comfort. Owners running other Camso equipment benefit from staying in-family.
Decision framework
- Deep snow regular (18"+)? WSS4.
- Soft-ground work (peat, bog, saturated pasture)? WSS4.
- Mixed conditions, balanced use? 4S1.
- Trailer-width constrained? 4S1.
- Canadian buyer / Kimpex dealer strong locally? WSS4.
- US buyer / Camso dealer strong locally? 4S1.
Key Takeaways
- WSS4 is wider, shorter-pitch, and built for soft-snow flotation.
- 4S1 is the balanced 4-season default — better for mixed conditions and hard surfaces.
- Trailer footprint matters — confirm your trailer fits the wider WSS4.
- Pricing is dealer/MAP — call your local dealer.
- Most full-size UTV recreational users land on the 4S1; deep-snow specialists choose the WSS4.
