John Deere 4100 AG tires

[RitchElbe]

If there is already a thread...forgive me for starting a new one..doing this on the cell and while in class.
I have a 4100 HYD. Need new tires. But the ones I find that match the numbers look nothing like the
AG tires that came on it originally. I was forced to buy one after a blow out and it can barely handle the
weight with the bucket on it. Walls are to weak. As anyone ran across a good replacement tire? A web search
as been some what lacking.

"Ag" tires are referred to as r-1 tires. If weight is an issue get at least an 8 ply, maybe a 10 or 12 ply.

What you may have is actually an r-4 or "industrial" tire, which are known to be stiffer tires.

this is what originally came on the tractor and what we replaced it with back in 03 when heat damage from a barn.
