OK Guys - After months of reading and testing I am at the final point of purchase. Thanks for all of your postings recently and in the past-very helpful.
One dealer is saying foam filled tires are the best as you never get flats-which could be a concern as I will run over recently cut small trees and sapling stumps. Next dealer says foam is no good as the tires are to rigid and you loose traction due to the shape of the tire. Anyone with thoughts on this?
Next one dealer says I must go with a Kabota BH or warranty on the three point area of the tractor will be void. Next dealer says not so-ok to put different brand if subframe mounted.
Lastly one dealer is a Brushhog rep. Bushhog?Brushhog? One of these. This is not a brand I have read much about on TBN. Does anyone have comments on the quality of this brand?
As always thanks for the help.

Mike, it's Bush Hog and you can look at their products at Bush Hog. I've used their tillers, post hole digger, finish mower, and brush hog. Like a lot of the companies, they make light, medium, and heavy duty implements. I had good luck with them.

Thanks Bird -I checked out that site and it answered a lot of my questions on Bush Hog-use the internet for info-why didnt I think of that. I ran a search on foam filled tires and did not find much. Anyone using foam filled-any problems with traction due to the tire being rigid?

Mike, the only reason I didn't have foam filled tires was because I decided it wasn't worth the cost in my particular situation. So I don't know a lot about the foam, but there has been a number of threads on that topic in the past on the forum. Apparently there are several different kinds of foam, with some making for a harder ride and some not so hard. Sorry I don't know enough details to be any help.
