I can give you an example. At one time I owned an 856 Farmall, which is roughly a 100 horsepower tractor, at the time, chisel plows were a very popular method of tilling the soil. The size of plow a tractor could handle was considerd to be one foot of plow for each 10 horsepower of tractor, so with a 100 horsepower tractor, I should have been pulling a 10 foot plow, by adding a set of dual rear tires, I could easily pull a 13 foot chisel plow. I tried pulling this plow one time without the duals, it just didn't work, I kept spinning out.
