[QUOTE="GavinJ, post: 6628509, member: 212"] Hi Our 2wd Ford 4610 (with loader) suffers from total loss of grip in muddy conditions. It is fitted with 16.9R30 rear tyres which are probably approaching 75% worn. Even with a concrete weight on the back it will not go places that our other tractors go easily but they do have narrower tyres. However i find it hard to believe that as these were standard fitment from the factory it is so bad. Also coming down slopes she just slides and another winter like this doesn't appeal at all. Wet slopes are quite common on a mid wales hill farm ! Should i change the wheels and fit narrower and taller tyres or replace with the same size and hope that the extra tread depth will improve things. [/QUOTE]
