Solideal tyres

[Godber]

Anyone had any experience with Solideal R1 tyres? They have been recommended for our loader(R20"x405/70).
Mainly for concrete work but occasionally on dirt tracks when dryish. They have a more hard wearing industrial type tread. Used in construction a lot apparently.
Cheers

I've had solid deal on skidsteer and they didn't last well but were cheap at £150 a tyre and did 15 months or 500 hours. I spent £200 a tyre on some Kenda rock grip tyres last summer and after 350 hours they are hardly worn. well worth the extra money.

I wouldnt recomend them. Poor grip compaired to agri due to pattern design and lack of tread depth to start with.
Very hard ride too and noisy at speed.

BKT agro industrial? are the tyres of choice for handlers at the minute I think for price and quality.

Dont like firestone. Michelin expensive and over rated. Mitas complete crap.

Our loadall had a new set of solideal tyres the industrial type fitted when we bought it . the one just exploded one night when it was parked up and the others scrub out in no time.

Steering clear of Solideal I think! Got a price for 14ply BKT's @ £215ea but not sure what type-will find out.
Thanks for your input.

14ply is going to be a hard ride 12 is plenty.
