New Holland mower tires. Solid or air?

Anonymous Poster · May 10, 2003

I used my 72" RMM today for first time. I loved it. I have R4 tires not loaded and was on real soft wet ground and am amazed the tractor did not sink hardly at all. The mower has the solid rubber tires but looks like in the manuel they usually come with air. Did anyone buy a 72inch mower with air tires and how wide are they. I did not have a problem with the mower sinking in so I am happy and probabbly will not change anything but was curious about what they usually come with with tires.

I was thinking about you guys today while I was mowing and cannot imagine how wet the groung must be for you guys to sink in. It sounds like its too wet to be on at all. I attached a picture just for fun.

Now that's weird 'cause I get a beautiful picture. Nice looking rig, mower blue to match, and canopy to match; pretty country, too.

That is a good lookin' tractor. My NH dealer talked me into ordering a BX22 instead of the TC21D. I do have some size limitations, several 48" chain link gates. Blue is my favorite color though. I guess I'll get used to Kubota orange/red.
