Reversed tires will wear a lot less on hard road surfaces. Over here, you often see local council tractors with reversed tyres, slashing (brush hogging) the road side. Custom pickers and combines that travel the roads a lot are another example. Also with a picker or combine, if you get bogged, you have max traction when you reverse out. The down side is a reduction in traction when moving forward, so reversing tyres on drive wheels is usually only done when the machine has a lot of road use and their primary use does not require max traction.
