Installed on a New Holland TC33DA. They are a stiff tire for a light tractor but carry a load extremely well. Dry traction is very good. Wet traction excellent. I would definitely purchase again. Easy order. Fast shipping.

I cannot give you a answer on how the tires perform at this time, only used them on light duty: I like the looks of them and the deep tread: Mounted them myself and realized there was a lot of tire there: Well built! Simple tire was great, tires delivered in two days on weekend: These were farm tractor tires so cannot answer your following questions: Certainly won't be racing with them!

This was a FRONT tire for my Kubota TRACTOR, so these review categories really do NOT fit. I liked the heavy carcass quality of the tire, plus the tread design, which is important when I'm working in the forest, or plowing heavy snow in Winter. The price was better than any of our local outlets. Thanks Simple Tire.
