After using the Nokians I will never go back to R1's or R4's.
What are these Nokians you speak of?

We don't get much snow, but I got to play some this weekend. Here's how it goes around here....
-Get some accounts to clear snow in town
-If and when there's enough accumulation, call and confirm you'll be there
-Get stuff loaded and ready, drive to town, dodge crazy people and kids doing donuts like they never seen snow before
-Arrive at job and it's already been done by some random person who never got hired to do it.
-Nobody gets paid
This has happened for 4 years now. Kinda makes a guy want to give up. These people will go hit the parking lots while it's still snowing, before the hired personnel arrive. Doesn't matter if we only get 1/2 inch, these jacklegs pile it up it and leave a bill. My customers say they don't pay em, but I guess there's enough people who'll pay that they make a little.
Drove 35 miles last night at 1 a.m. to do one of my ambulance districts. I called right before I left to confirm I was coming and they said come on. Guess what....Somebody beat me there. So now I'll just charge em for my drive and I guess since they're not paying the knucklehead that did it without asking, they'll come out good.
Anyway, alot of times when there's just a couple inches, I use a tractor with box blade for parking lots, straight blade for driveways. This is my buddy's 863. I'm using it now because my lights aren't working on my little tractor. I like it, but run foot controls better. This one's hand. Not much faster than my tractor and blade though. I'm keepin' her loaded on the count of we're posed to git more Monday
Hi Razor,
Are those tires load rated, like the R-4s... excellent tread pattern, more aggressive than turf tires.... might be what I'm looking for on my M-59 for working the resort property.
What size are those? Definitely looks like a great tire for snow and turf. I like the turfs on my 4520, but they don't have the load capacity that I would like for loader work. The fronts will squat way more than I like.
