Simple request for tractor modders.

Post by gmfarmer420 »

Can we please get the option for Nokian tires with wheel weights. This would be very helpful on small/medium tractors with loader. Also would be more realistic for running the reach mower.

What country do you live in? I ask solely because I am legitimately curious where this would be realistic. Not in a snarky way.

I have seen Nokian tires fitted to my mates Oliver 1950 el Toro tractor. He Uses them for tractor pulling because radials aren't allowed and they aren't radials. They cost him about 7000 to put them all round the Oliver.

That’s cause pavement kills regular Ag tires plus lots of those tractors are used in the winter for the county and a lot you see are probably snow tires

When I was growing up(1950's & 60's) the city and county ordered the tractors they used as industrials and they came with what we called turf tires. They did not have the farm tire tread and were wider and acted like flotation tires. They also used chains in the winter on them as well.

Here in the uk a lot of councils use smaller frame tractors with turf tires or Nokians for cutting the grass in parks and school grounds and the like, our council has a John Deere 6130m on nokians.
