Michelin Bibload hard surface is what they're called. We found the traditional tractor tread BKT tyres didnt last nearly as well as the Michelin equivelent on a telehandler but tractor and trailers they worked well. The Bibload is definitely harder wearing but completley useless offroad especially when it comes to anyform of towing or pushing on grass or stubble unless its bone dry like this summer. If you're a mixed farm stick to the traditional type!
