We’ve got on well with bkts, done about 1000 hours so far and not showing significant wear yet. It mainly loads grain and straw though and rarely does muck so other people may find they wear worse

Go for radials well worth the extra.

BKT's for front line machine, consider wider 445 or 480s perhaps. I have a 2nd machine which I recently put JCB's own crossplys on. About 1/2 the money of the BKT's but perfect for the work it now does.

Agree 100% . I've got one Merlo with that size Mitas cross ply and another with Trelleborg radials supplied by @Terry Elsey Tyres and the one with the cross plys is like driving something with square wheels.

The radials are also lasting better, will probably do an extra 1000hrs on a set

Speak to @Terry Elsey Tyres. Great service.
I've just had some Vredestein radials hit the floor, they look decent tread pattern.
If you can get a mate to help you fit them, you will save £100 a corner over tyre firms prices, half of whom dont even bother to ring back.

I find 460/70 24 best in field but effect lift capacity. 405/70 24 best in yard work but nothing will last like the original mitas. You may need different rims for a 460 though
