I’ve got a tractor and telehandler wanting tyres soon and was wondering if it’s much cheaper for me to buy tyres online (such as big tyres.co.uk) or is it not worth it and let local tyre firm do them?
Currently pricing up tyres to replace a set of Michelin Axiobibs. 800x70R38 rears and 600x70R30
Waiting on some prices back. Any other brand I should be looking at? currently got prices in for Michelin, BKT, Vredestein.
Have decided to steer clear of Trelleborg because of them going at the...

There are a number of vexing...

Is the VT transmission reliable and durable?
Tempted by VT but I notice that used prices seem to be slightly less than comparable Dyna 6 models.
Be looking at something like 2015-18 models about 160-200 hp.
Any opinions and experiences welcome. TIA.

Awareness of the flood risk management benefit of improved soil management is spreading fast. But as the UK bounces from arguably its most familiar climate-water challenge to drought, should we be thinking far more about healthy soil’s water resources benefits? They could be substantial writes...
We are after a new set of tyres and have been quoted the thick end of 14k for a set of Trelleborg and 8k for a set of BKT.
But are they cheap for a reason? The tractor will do minimal road work and only does chaser bin and rolling, probably 400 hours a year and we are hoping a new set will last...
Hi, we have four old tractor tyres that need disposing of. Does anyone know what our legal obligations are in terms of disposing of them and/or what other legal options are there, eg recycling them for another use on our site maybe?
If you know of any good web links that would be very helpful...
Are we heading for recession?
House price crash?

To be different this year, I spread 4 out of 5 fields within a block with rotted horse manure over winter. But even the...
Evening all
back for more advice.
What size compressor would you use for inflating tractor tyres.
I’ve seen the PTO ones but would a 4x4 in car compressor work. It maxes out at 80psi not sure about the CFM though.
or would it be a 50lt, 100lt, 200lt compressor?
thanks
I have two to three piles of scrap tyres about the same size as the one in the photo. What’s the best way of getting rid of them nowadays- ie the most cost effective legal way
