By the comments in the previous posts I'm pretty sure he'll only ever fill it once if that.

Some people go right for a negative.
Even when the negative doesn’t exist.

Is the one in the picture? All dressed up with weights. Looking good! Congrats!

You've been building quite an arsenal in the past couple of years. All the best!
Thanks!
Business is ”booming”….kinda. Rumor has it I may be getting another 120 acres.

The weights will really help on the slopes.

She’s down at the tire shop getting 2 tires replaced. Man,,,,it never stops.
I must have spent 20 grand on tires last 4-5 years.

Even if I squint it doesn’t look like my Challenger. Nice looking tractor, now put it to work! I just looked at the picture again, I bet it has a few thousand dollars worth of weights on the front.

On the back, too.
It has (4) 250KG rear axle weights.

This is the tire being replaced. Will make a good spare. Hope I never need it.

(1) Vredestein on the back and (1) Trelleborg on the front.
Congrats on the 120 acres!!! Is that going to be hay, or just mowing?

My Massey has Trelleborg tires. I'm terrified what they might cost when I have to buy new ones.

That's always nice to hear! The first part that is. Specially considering that farmers keep getting an harder harder conditions to work, all over the world.

The second part, well, those radials ain't cheap! I bet one of the front ones would be enough money for me to get 4 rims and 4 radials to put on mine.

Hay! :)

They’re actually more on the affordable end. Not a bad tire, but some complain the sidewalls check on them prematurely. Got to keep them inflated properly and keep the tractor shedded when not in use.
