WHEELS AND TYRES
With plenty of options to choose from, selecting the best agricultural wheels and tyres for your tractor can be a daunting task. The most important thing to consider is how you plan to use your tractor. Will you use it to pull, till, plough or perform other activities?
Planned Ownership Time
There is no need to buy expensive tractor wheels and tyres if you plan to sell your tractor within a short period. Agricultural tractor wheels can be costly. Thus, investing in them for a limited period may not be the best return on investment. Instead, you can pick used wheels and tyres.
Surface Type
As a tractor owner, you are probably aware that different tractor tires are designed for different surfaces. You need to think of the terrain surfaces your tractor will face. The standard garden tractor tyres with narrowly spaced lugs are best suited for a dry surface.
On the other hand, tyres with aggressive treads are perfect for wet and slippery surfaces. The best thing about broadly spaced lugs in tyres is that they accumulate little to no mud between them, and that is why you can use them on heavily mud-covered surfaces.
Construction
Tyre construction is categorised into radial and bias. Bias tyres are affordable, and most tractor owners select them due to their utility. Radial tyres, on the other hand, are durable and assure incredible performance. You can choose the best tractor tyre construction based on your needs; consider the number of hours you’ll use the tractor per year.
Popular Agricultural Tractor Tyres
Massey Ferguson is one of the best manufacturers of tractors, along with Trelleborg wheels and tyres. They have been in the industry for a long time, and that is why they design tractor tyres and wheels that incorporate the latest technology. Their tractor wheels and tyres are popular due to their long tread life and durability. Best of all, they include an inventive tread design that will not handle most surfaces. We also sell from another well known brand, Trelleborg.
