We put goodyear on over bkt as the salesman said was a better tyre. Same price for both. But only in October so time will tell. Won't be hard to be better than the firestones that came off.

JB tyres wont fit good year because of too many warranty issues

Or they're saying that because of who is promoting Goodyear in Northern Ireland.
JB certainly want plenty for the old stock Goodyears they have.

You're not buying tyres,you're getting married to the tyres. If you change your mind after the deal lis done like marriage it gets very expensive. You have to live with them to death do us part,tyres you get what you pay for

Needing a new set of boots for my jcb 310. What are those,very tempted to go the semi industrial route, eg bix load Michelin
We've a set of the firestone semi industrials and I think theyre a good tyre. Buckraked silage last summer with them with no noticeable difference to agri type tyres.

Do you think they will last longer
We've about 1200 hours on them and id say there's 60-70% left on them. They'll be fairly worn at the 3000hr stage I imagine. That's probably a bit better than the agri type pattern.

JCB puts its trust in Michelin’s new BibLoad Hard Surface tyres
JCB is fitting Michelin’s new BibLoad Hard Surface tyres as original equipment across its extensive range of loadalls, telehandlers and backhoe loaders. Before signing the deal, JCB asked a number of its customers to test the tyres in real-world situations, to ensure they were up to the job...

That's because they're tall and wide for their size.

Bring back true Goodyear tyres would be best. Just taken off some Opitracs and they have given fantastic service

I’ve got a 12 year old tractor on Goodyear 650’s and a 3 year old tractor on Michelin 650’s.
Park them side by side and you’d swear they were on different sizes, the Goodyear’s looking much wider.
I put the tape on them and that says 2 inches difference although it actually looks like more
Michelin are very poor for tyre size, tread width are usually about 50mm + narrower than other makes of the same size. I would never think about having a tractor fitted with them. A mate has them on his last new tractor, he said " never again ",
