I currently have a John Deere 1070 with turf tires. I priced ag tires and rims last year and found them a bit too pricey. Finding used Ag tires with rims has proved fruitless. A dealer contacted me with R4 tires off of a 990 that would fit on the 1070 and maintain the rolling ratio. The only downside is that if I ever wanted ag tires, I would have to get different rims. Same issue as with the turf rims.
Most of what I do is brush hogging with the intent of doing some log skidding ---about 85/15. Would R4 serve well or should I hold out for ags. The turf tires just slick up too much and I find the 1070 getting stuck when it shouldn't.
Suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanki
