£11 from my local, £14 from a popular seaside restaurant that was on the local news earlier in the week.

The tyre manufacturers have data tables with this information. There'll be recommended and acceptable rims for each tyre. For example, Michelin recommend a 16" rim, but 18" are also acceptable, for the Agribib 2.

The originals are cbm. Price a few CNH dealers first, prices can vary considerably between them. If you want genuine make sure you tell them that, some stock an economy version that they buy in from the aftermarket supplier.

The model E only went up to 4 furrows from the factory.

In my job away from farming I'm paid 45 minutes a day for breaks, or an hour if I do over 12 hours that day.

And hope nobody sees you!

Anyone else thinking of taking the year off?

Guessing the 16.9r38s are on the 1690? Would duals benefit it much? From what I remember of a neighbour's 1594 those 2wd 6 cylinders were nose heavy so the front would still be leaving it's mark even if the rear is treading lightly. There are recommended spacings for duals but given the weight...
