936 is needing some new IF boots before long. BKTs are coming in considerably less than anything else, 5k less than one brand. Are they worth a punt? The trelleborgs have done well doing nearly 6k hours with tread left but side walls are starting to crack. Never run BKTs on high hp tractor...
What’s the opinions on this tyre size? Better going for 650/65r42s? I’m Wanting to run 600/65r28s on the front so thought they would be the correct match.
Are BKT in the 75 profile a good option or best avoid? Do the 75 profile 650s fit on a rim I’ve got for 650/65r38? Or would I need a...
What is my JD7830 worth..... 2010, auto trac, front links, new front and back tyres, 650/65/42 and 540 bkt tyres, power quad, only 5300 hours, mechanically perfect, very smart looking. I am curious to see if it has gone up in value like new ones that are simply eye watering in price!. Thanks.
I have a 2012 jcb 531 70 year 2012 with 5000 hours on. Good clean machine with pick up hitch and 60% tyres.
how would you value it?
only thing wrong is the mud guards are a bit shabby, mainly an arable farm but with 100 sheep, so odd bit of silage and hay feeding.
Putting new set boots on front of loader tractor. Came on Continental, done 3500hrs 3 yrs. Goodyear same price as Mitas (continental)
Is Goodyear still a good tyre???
I'm needing to reboot my jcb310s with new tyres,I'm looking at new Michelin tyres at about 3k,should I consider the semi industrial type tyre at approximately £100 / set more expensive. Are there any cheaper alternatives which offer better value for money than Michelin. I must admit the...
We have 14t Bailey root crops are present and find the unladen weight of over 6.5t plenty enough. Maybe they are over engineered for carrying potatoes and corn as that what we use them for.
Does anyone know who would make a lighter weight root crop ? It would be better for us not to be pulling...
Evening folks,
Wanting to order a set of tyres, tyre man says that the Ceat are better than the bkt what we had on last time. Basically anyone had any ceat tyres on and think there better than the bkt. We had a set of bkt on it last time and they have done 4000 hour of mainly road work so...
I'm looking at changing to a trailed sprayer. Because everyone says how easy they are to drop on and off I would like to be able to use the tractor for other jobs. Mainly carting. Without changing wheels.
At the moment I've.a 2170 fastrac with a demount on it. This just stays on it, from may...
I’m purchasing a 8340 coming on bald tyres so good chance to put wider ones on. Main jobs will be rolling and fert spreading. Very little road work. Will be doing low hours so want to last a good few years.
Question is what would be the best tyre for the job. Thinking 600/65r38 and 480/65r28...
I currently have 380/85/28 sized tyres on the front of my tractor and am going to change them to 420/28. Would changing the profile of the tyre to a 70 give and benefit for example speed,grip,how it feels on the road. Or would it do any harm with 4wd etc?
Anyone got any good or bad things to report on these,
Never come across them before.
A 16 tonne, is around the same price as a Bailey or Stewart 14 tonner.
Hi, any feed back on either of these tyre brands being better than the other please? Within £20 of each other. 16.9 R34’s on a fairly low use stock tractor - hence the ‘budget’ choice.
Looking at a 14 tonne grain trailer
Must have a roll over sheet and air brakes
Local dealers sell
Bailey and
Richard Weston
And I’ve found a decent seconhand Broughan
What make would you choose??
I am looking for tyres for our quad and the better known makes seem to be in short supply.
I tried to order 4 BKT wing's online and got an e mail to say they weren't available, and I find the same on other sites and other makes, I wonder if this is because of Covid or Brexit?
My venerable 40.7 has 10500 hrs on it, now on lightish duties but still essential tool with a house renovation about to start.
The tyres are chuffed, anyone priced these lately ? Always got on well with Mitas. Alternatively anyone have a part worn st they would sell.
