Tire chains is the only thing I would reccomend.
More weight is nice to a point, but once you have enough weight to push the tires down through the snow, more weight won't do anymore good.
If there is ice under the snow, chains are the only thing that will help. Remember, there are no front brakes on a Super A, the rears have to make you go AND stop. A farm tractor on ice can be a dangerous thing if you can't control it. Unless you have perfectly flat driveways to plow, you can slide around and upset with no way to help yourself.
You need the chains to give you some bite, tractor tires will NOT bite on ice.
