Allan: I'm sure the tires do make a difference. Most of the 1256, 1456, 1066 and 1466 came in around here with 20.8 x 38 and they dualed them besides. One wack of presure with snap on duals. We work with a much softer soil than you do, our annual rainfall is up around 45". Have to really watch that soil compaction. I ran 16.9 X 38 on 560 and 656. I used absolutely no weights on 560, 656 or 1066 other than I had about 18 front end weights and racks on each tractor. My 300 on the other hand which hauled a lot of hay and silage on hard roads, had 13.6 x 38 with chloride and wheels weights.

One of the merriest rides I ever had in my life was 1066 on hard frozen ground with 12 ton manure spreader behind. They don't have rides at county fair with that much thrill, even yet.
