Something about those older series B's that the front geometry was harder on lawns/yards. The
B7510 was/is tougher on the grass than my newer
B2320 was. Don't know the engineering differences.
Having 4 wheel engaged? disaster for grass. Even having the loader on the front adds more weight for turning on grass.
The turf tire is AWESOME in snow, in most textures we get and that's the problem with discussing turf tires on snow. Everybody has different snow and snow comes in different textures throughout the winter. Really, really hard to make generalization that all too often are made here on TBN. One tire does not fit all situations, it's that simple.
The R4 industrial are handsome and that's likely why they are popular. Looks. True, they're tougher and hold up well to working in the woods, pickers, thorns, etc. They're also stiffer so they hold up under material handling with the FEL.
My experience with R4 industrials in the snow? In far too many situations they can be a nightmare for traction. The industrial tire just isn't a snow tracking pattern.
So? No one tire can meet EVERY situation that a tractor will be expected to meet as you do your various chores. No perfect tire. Sorry. Cover your top 2, most prevalent, most important tasks first!!! Choose the better tire for those chores. The rest? You'll make do. It'll still work, just maybe not quite as well. That's what we call life.
