Buying first tractor need some advice

   / Buying first tractor need some advice #11  
I watched the videos. With the exception of the 4th one with the large New Holland Tractor, all the videos are a small amount of snow where I would have less concern driving thru it and packing down the snow with my tracks.

I am considering buying a SCUT and will definitely need it for snow removal. I would say it would ordinarily have to go through 2' of snow. How does the reduced ground clearance of a SCUT affect these forward facing 3 point hitch snow blowers? I'm thinking because of the ground clearance a front mounted snowblower or a rear facing 3 point hitch blower would work a lot better.

Does anyone have experience with these on a SCUT?

The pull type are for large(high clearance)tractors.SCUTs/Cuts are better served with the front or traditional rear.

Second trip out to farm country to visit the dealer. They won't have an nx6010h in til November.

They have two nx4510h and 1 nx5510h there, ready to go. The 72" blower looks awesome.

My biggest issue now is tire choice. I wanted turf tires. I saw a set going on another customers ck4010h in their shop, nice tires, look like deep tread snow tires. They were a perfect fit for that tractor. But he said the size they would have for the NX would be shorter and wider.

The tires on the 45 were thinner and a hair shorter than the ones on the 55. I'm concerned about lack of traction and can't figure out what tires to go with now. The tires currently on the tractors are industrial.

I found these pics from another forum member here, hope he doesn't mind me using them. I'm looking at the same tractor with these tires. How do you all think these will be on pavement for snow removal vs AG tires. These are what I want so I'm hoping they would work well...
