Ouch...... I'm not sure radials are worth that much. Mine are Titan brand. I think Michelin makes a great tire and would certainly outlast my Titans.
I think the traction is much improved over bias. Also probably longer wear. But I can't say those issues are worth $2K.
But putting it in perspective. We are talking about a $60K tractor. $2K for tires just adds 3% to the price. I know you gotta draw a line somewhere. But a year from now are you gonna wish you had bought radials?? Only you can answer that.
