Size Considerations:

• The first number in a tire size indicates width (e.g., 280/85R24 means 280mm wide).
• The second number indicates aspect ratio (height relative to width).
• A wider tire provides better flotation by distributing weight over a larger area.
• A taller tire can help in deep, sticky mud, providing extra clearance and traction.
• If increasing size isn't an option, adding a third tire can improve flotation by distributing weight more effectively.

Ply Rating & Construction:

• 4-Ply vs. 6-Ply: Higher ply ratings offer more durability and stiffness.
• Radial vs. Bias Tires: Radial tires provide a smoother ride and better weight distribution, which improves flotation.
• Non-Directional vs. Directional Treads: Directional treads provide more grip, while non-directional tires offer balanced performance.

Tubes can extend the life of your tires and prevent costly downtime, but they aren't always necessary. Here’s when a tube might be the right choice:

• Sealing Slow Leaks: If a tire is losing air but is otherwise in good shape, adding a tube can prevent frequent refilling.
• Older or Worn Tires: Recap and older tires may develop small cracks that a tube can help seal.
• Operating in Harsh Conditions: Tubes add an extra layer of protection in rocky terrain where punctures are more likely.
• Air Retention in Bias-Ply Tires: Some bias-ply tires hold air better with a tube, especially if used in high-load applications.

When NOT to use tubes: Radial tires are designed to flex for better performance, and tubes can limit that flexibility, leading to premature wear. Always check manufacturer recommendations before installing tubes in radial tires

Reversing a tire can significantly impact traction and wear under certain conditions.

• To Reduce Soil Displacement: On softer ground, reversing the tread pattern can help prevent excessive digging and reduce ruts.
• For Extended Tire Life: If a tire is showing uneven wear, reversing it can distribute stress more evenly and maximize lifespan.
• For Better Flotation in Muddy Conditions: In deep mud, reversing some tire types may help reduce slippage by adjusting how the tread interacts with the soil.
• On Directional Tires: Some directional treads can be flipped to change performance, but check manufacturer guidance before doing so.

Not all tires can or should be reversed. If in doubt, consult with your dealer to determine whether reversing your tires could benefit your specific field conditions.
