VF tractor tyres

[shumungus]

That is correct, but it was done. My tractor and two of my neighbours tractors t7.260 and t7.270 were all supplied new from the factory on xeobibs and have had no problems whats so ever .Except the price of replacing them when the time comes, as he has already replaced a set with the same again and I will replace mine with either xeo's or probably axio's.

Also I have to add that I have never seen a tyre carry as well and be as easy on grassland as a xeobib would a axiobib be equally as good? I realise there must be something stiffer about it as it is rated for more weight and power.

Michelin Xeobib Tyres on a 600-60-30 and 710-60-42 are only rated at 180 to 200hp and should never be fitted on a tractor with more hp than that .

You need to tell that to Agco who fit them all the time , maybe you know more than they do.

We specced Our new 6215r on Bridgestone vf’s. Have been very impressed with them and feel they are a better tyre than the Michelin vf’s on our 195r. Unless there is any major issues all our tractors will come with them now if there is a suitable size!

What do you like about the Bridgestones over the Michelins?

 

[agri knives]

So the dealer popped the tractor on a set of scales with all the implements you would be using and told you the pressures for each?

from the picture you’ve posted your tyres were under inflated, maybe put the chip on your shoulder on the front linkage to correct this.

That shows what you know which is very little , a couple more lads here are saying that they were too hard . So who’s right and who’s wrong , some say too hard and some say too soft .All experts , the tyres are inflated to the recommended pressure by their manufacturer .

You kill some one on the road with them and you are on your own , I would not take delivery of a tractor or anything on the wrong spec Tyres , have been there before and never again

If those tyres kill someone on the road and it’s the tyres fault then it’s Agcos problem. I don’t believe Agco would be accused of fitting the wrong tyres.

Do you some times run the front mower on that tractor

You are so wrong there with that statement
Ask Michelin and JCB about the people kill with the wrong Tyres on a tractor and who went to jail

How can they be inflated to the recommended pressure when they don’t know the load? And I know more about tyres than you give me credit for

They handle better on the road with loaded trailers and find they grip better on draught work. Pressures are altered for each job from 10psi when rolling up to I think it was 18psi on road work and depending on load anywhere in between for draught work. Only had the tractor since august so not done thousands of hours but so far so good!

 

[daveydiesel1]

Sure go on inside and young Gribben will get you a coffee, remember to take your chequebook.

If he was fool enough to accept a cheque for that amount from me i might just give him it

How would the load on the front change .

By the way your talking you know very little

No the mowers are on the t191 for the season , the jumbo 7210 wagon is it’s main job.

The Bridgestone look good.
Are both the Michelins and Bridgestones the same sizes?

What's the weight on the front axle and what psi are they inflated to?

How often do you check or change the tyre pressure on the front of your JD.

 

[marco]

Drop the pressure before sowing corn and will pump them back up for slurry silage, there's 8000hrs on the original Michelin's but they will soon be changed. I like the look of the Bridgestone

 

[snarling bee]

How often do you check or change the tyre pressure on the front of your JD.

I bet he does it more often than you do.

I need to ask - when you take your loved ones on a long journey in the car, do you check the tyres before you go, taking into consideration the weight that the vehicle will be carrying? Or do you just glance at the tyres thinking that last time the car was serviced the dealer would have checked?

IMO you are acting like a switch that you operate by rotation (but I don't expect you to work that out).
