I have a friend that had to replace 1 front tire on his tractor that is MFWD. The tractor has over 4000 hours and the front tires were about 60% worn. I have read several times over the years that on driven axles of tractors and other similar machines if the circumference difference is greater than 5% then both should be replaced. I've been looking but I can not find such information now. What I keep finding if about the difference between front and back tires on 4wd tractors.
Does anyone have similar information or a link I can show him. He asked my opinion and would like to see it for himself. If he only use the tractor around the farm I would say even then he would be OK. This year though he started using the tractor to deliver hay and it's an hour each way on paved roads. I don't think it's a good thing for his front axle being that it's limited slip.
