A couple of weeks ago I went to Pima County Fair (near Tucson AZ)and watched a demonstration tractor pull. They pulled both rubber tired tractors and steel wheeled tractors. Sure showed the advantage of rubber tires as the steel wheeled tractors didn"t come close to the rubber tired tractors. Very interesting.
 
The old timers used to say they could pull the plow or whatever they were hitched to a gear faster in the field after they put their tractor on rubber. Now lessee, you have three gears, slow, slower and slowest. I wonder if they were meaning they could shift from slower up to slow. LOL.
 
I don't have any first hand experience to compare pulling power, but after watching a few steel wheeled tractors I'm glad By the time I was old enough to drive Dad had sold his. I can only imagine bouncing on those things all day.
