John Smith - 1/8/2019 07:07 Asking for a friend, What works for a hay tractor? He likes to run tires that are 2/3 wore out, They currently are in need of replacement. He is looking for a used set of 14.9x24 radials for the front of a loader tractor, He does not want knobby tires, Wondering what tread style works best in a hay field? Thinking he will probably have to purchase new tires. 

Take them in and get them recapped with a heavy rear truck tread . . . . . we do that with the townships mowing tractor. Tractor treads wear out way, way too fast roading with Twp use. On the second recap of the casing with a heavy garbage truck tread and it works great for longevity and still gets acceptable traction in wet slippery conditions. Mud is a little different - they do not perform like tractor tread, but do work ok getting unstuck when in mud. kind'a like this tread pattern -
