Happy with my trelleborgs at 3600 hours.
Won't be paying 8k for a replacement set.

What’s the BKTs 650/75/38s like? Or what’s the alternative brand options for that size? Don’t think my budget can stretch to a Michelin or Trelleborg, unfortunately
How many hours have you the wides on for?Happy with my trelleborgs at 3600 hours.

How do the Klebers compare price wise against BKT, Mitas, etc?We had Kleber on our t7.235. Brilliant gripping tyre and comfortable. Might be worth a look

Funnily enough I have thr same problem... feeder tractor in for its weekly top up of airLooks like its seen some flint , ,
have got on well with mitas ,
and have two sets of mich on ,
and a set of bkt always go down very slowly , even changed rims ,and had them blasted and painted , and bllody things still go down , ,tractor may only do 4/500:hrs a year ,and every time you go to it ,one tyre is soft
10 mins a week, wear and tear on compressor, £520 a year... soon adds upFunnily enough I have thr same problem... feeder tractor in for its weekly top up of air View attachment 947997

on a newholland t7.No wonder xeobibs only rated to 220HP
I probably not the only one who is weary of the Mitas tyres which are (or appear to be) rebranded Continentals, after having sidewall issues.Mitas are making tyres the same as the old continental and are supplied on some new tractors so arent a budget tyre,id say more middle of the road. Budget would be more like ceat,ozka,gri and tianli.

Had to change the fronts as one had cracks in the side wall. Old man was cursing them for cracking with tread left on, but i didn't think they had done too bad to get to 6k hrs. If they had worn out completely at 5000hrs he probably wouldn't have said owt. Changed them for bkts as couldn't get hold of any trelleborg ones last summer.
Always amazed at the difference in peoples experiences with the same brand tyre.
