Time for new front tires

Hughman · May 6, 2023

My front tires are bald, cracking around the center of the tread line and have multiple plugs from punctures over the years. Having a hard time holding air at this point. The rears still look like new. Leaning towards just replacing them with the same brand (titan trac loaders, 25-8.5/14). Is there better tires I should consider? These are the original tires on a '04 New Holland tc33da.

Titan brand Trac Loader 25-8.5/14 tires are six (6) ply R4 industrial tires. If you have a FEL most would use some brand of FEL load supportive R4 industrial tires in front. Every R4/industrial tire I have encountered is at least six (6) ply.

If your front tire punctures have cost you unacceptable downtime there are thick (8-ply, 10-ply) industrial tires and/or Kevlar ply 'demolition' tractor tires. Demolition tires are small production run tires, therefore expensive.

Or you can have your new tires foam filled by the tire dealer.
