Flat Proofing Airplane tires

   / Airplane tires #34  
My tractor kept showing me progressively deeper fabric bands on it's tires. I called the company that sold me the tires and the man on the phone said he thought it was because I drove on pavement. The fronthe tires sometimes bulldoze up a pile of wasted hay and cause me to backup and drive around. This annoyance was much worse with the aircraft tires. I finally replaced them with ribbed tractor tires.

that happens when the tires lose traction and don't turn, they bulldoze instead of riding over..

Correct. It's worse in wet weather for that reason. The tires are so stiff that they don't flex for added traction. I kept them to remount when thorns are a problem.
