What size?
Kleber tend to be made using older Michelin design, and would tend to be my choice if doing a good bit of field work.
BKT are IMO variable between different ranges, I would rate their 65 series highly, but their older 70 series have very light sidewalls.
I wouldn't take a present of Alliance tyres.

Kleber pretty hard wearing but useless if you need tubes.

We have 540-28 and 650-38 Bkt on our frontloader Maxxum, great grip, seem to wear out at acceptable pace and were quite affordable.

Had lots of BKT here on flinty ground and they are a far tougher sidewall than Kleber/Michelin. Go with BKT without doubt for a loader tractor imho, any tyres I replace are with BKT except telehandler which they are not competitively priced on.

Vredestein would be my choice but would take Bkt over Kleber if they were the same price.

I got kleber with a cash back couple years ago, worked out similar to BKT. Rate them highly.

Just search Aliance on here and you’ll see why if they where free they would still be too expensive!

I know. But they must have been on sale for 3 or 4 years now? So people will have an idea of how they are lasting?

Does that warranty explicitly state that cracking sidewalls will be considered as manufacturing fault and not automatically fobbed off as run too soft?
