Reversing buzzer, switched off!! Had been on Veg farm for year before I got it, think spec higher than they realised when I bought it.

Yes think it should be great. Michelin guy is going to come and do axel weights to get pressures set for different jobs. 👍👍

Was on 600 65R38 and 540 65R24 now on 710 60R38 and 520 60R28. Best combination to give same mechanical ratio and front wheel lead ( would probably have been more straightforward if it had been on 28inch wheels originally, but happy with results so far). Think there is a bit of adjustment left...

So got new wheels and tyres fitted today. Look great, although more in need of hovercraft at moment!!! ( before and after)

Sure I have seen some that would be suitable for sheep ie a fairly low side, you could slide a piece of timber (6x3 or thereabouts) down inside of H beam to make higher for cattle.

I am going for 710/60 R38, there are going to be best fit for us just trying to decide on offset for rims, does anyone have any opinion on what minimum clearance is ok between inside of tyre and tractor. Thanks

Thanks. The one with the loader looks like it would float on anything!! 👍👍

Thanks all for reply’s. Just to confirm @Gerbert , you know off/ have seen/ driven 6130R on running on 650/65R38 with no issues and enough room @ steps diesel tank etc? @DieselRob presume your Row Crops are pretty tight fit, what size are they? Does it feel significantly higher on them or not...

Thanks, do you both alter pressure much to get most benefit from top work? Any problems with sitting lower, or speed etc. @DieselRob you have tall row crops, do you notice massive difference in height, speed? Or not too much. Anyone with 650/65R38 Multibibs on, looks like they are slightly...

😮 not needing to be a wife as that, just wondering what will physically fit and works in practice. Thanks

What are people’s thoughts experiences of above? I know a few on here are running 650/60R38 how are you getting on with them? They have slightly smaller diameter and sit a bit “lower” than 600/65R38 standard tires, has this been an issue, annoying for anyone. Have also read that you can...

Would you put ewes with baby lambs straight into paddock with poly wire rather than behind net for a day or two first

As above was thinking about making small areas with electric net for young lambs before they go into paddocks with polywire, good idea or not. Thoughts, experience please. Thanks

Make sure pluogh man does good job. Powerharrow amazone air drill combination with spouts cable tied to back of coulters. Cambridge roll. Heavy roll in spring. Has worked very well for over 15 years, only ever see the rows for first few weeks.
