MF 35 Rear Tires

My 1953 Ferguson TEA20 has 12.4 X 28, and the MF35 has 13.4 X 28.

Maybe the wide tire craze of the seventies inflated all of the tire specs.

A 13.6 can squeeze onto an 11 inch wide rim acceptable according to the same table.

For more traction, look at radials, though they tend to be expensive.

Don't run too much air in your bias ply tires and they will grip better. Probably 12 to 16 psi is all they need.

If the hill is too steep for the rear tires to hold, think how the tractor might roll if the tires held instead of sliding... I doubt your neck is strong enough to hold the tractor up while it rolls over. Small tractors can be killers.

I think there's a conversion chart for tractor rears at Miller Tire.
