After posting below today I did some searching today and was really stunned at what I found. I found a lot of people talking about the type of soil you have and getting the right tire to match the soil type. WHAT kind of BS is this? I buy a tractor and now I have to get tires to match my ground? Dirt is dirt and it comes from the same place, Rock and organic material. Simple as that.
The hole point of a tractor tire is to get traction, Right? I read that tires made over seas are made for soils there and not hear and the ones from hear don't work over there? I really don't get it. Its like saying tires sold out in the South West wont work in New York.
All I know is there are Long Bar and Long Bar Short Bar, 23* 30* and 45* tires Bias and Raidial Power Tork, Supper Tork, Field and Road and on and on. You would think after 100 years they would have figured it out by now, But no its all in marketing now, And New and Improved and Better than so and so and Super Gum Dipped and on and on. I would think a tractor tire is made for Hard, Soft and Muddy conditions and still get good traction and clean itself and not ball up. Right? All I know is what I was taught, Soft ground wide tires with deep lugs or duals the same way, Pulling track old and hard and sharp. Tire pressure should be to ware the outside edge of the lug of the tire is just off the ground with a load on the tractor, So tire pressure can and will be changed according to need.
So what do you think about all this hype about rear tractor tires? Bandit
