Anyone any experience / thoughts.

Xeobibs are good.. got a set at 6500 hours now and still probably 30%.

I love bkt but with the newer series tyres it seems a bit hit or miss how they wear. Neighbour has a set of agrimax sirio and they seem to wear quite hard and uneven. One thing about xeobibs is they seem to wear very even.
I have a set of 710/60r38 that are quite worn so I would be interested aswell.

Quality vs price?

Have Xeobib 710/60r42 as a topwork tyre on a 6480. Also have Trelleborg 710/60r38 permanently fitted on a 6718S. Both are wearing well, took the Trelleborgs as they were a good bit cheaper than Michelin and quicker lead time when we were ordering 6718. The Michelins were insurance replacements when had a shed burned with a set of 800 floats we used for drilling and fert spreading. Planning to change 6480 this year and we will order with new rowcrops and just use Xeobibs the rest of the year. Have been disappointed by the last BKT tyres I've had on forklift and smaller tractor so not really considering them.

I’d you are about to buy Michelin’s then hold one for a week as their spring campaign is about to start and you will save some £s.
