The article the Bradley is tracked, or rather that iron bars could foul the tracks.

On the news, I ve seen 8 wheeled rubbertired vehicles that are OD/green. Are these American or they Iraqi? I didn't think they were Bradleys and I didn't think the Iraqi troops had any vehicles but don't know what they are.

Those are armored personnel carriers, not Bradleys.

The Army uses the Bradley which is tracked. The Marine Corps uses the LAV(Light Armored Vehicle) which is wheeled.

Those are LAVs, Marine light armored vehicles. Much smaller. The Brad is about 30 tons, roughly the mass of a WW II Sherman tank, is fully tracked, has a turret mounted 25mm auto cannon (as does the LAV), plus coaxial 30 cal machinegun, and TOW ATGM launcher. And space in the back for a dismount fire team, 4 or 6 men depending on the model, who have Javelin ATGMs, LMGs, grenade launchers, and small arms.
