Tires Bar Turf Tires?

RhallVA · Feb 10, 2002

Anyone use Bar Turf tires to mow the front yard? I found them excellent for loader work, but wonder if they will be too tough on the front yard in the spring! I have a B2410 with Turf Tires in front and Bar Turf in the rear. Anyone used these with or without sucess?

Thanks!

The bar turfs came with my JD 670. I've not had any problems with them damaging the lawn.
Not sure how good they'd be in the snow, however...we've only got 3"-4" so far.
The 670 is pretty light, however...maybe 2200 lbs with the FEL on it.

I have a B7500 with the Bar/Turf tires and have had no problems with them on the lawn.

I had a 2400 with turn/bars and although I never used it to mow the lawn, I did travel over the grass frequently without undue trouble. It thought they were a good compromise for suburban use. Wen I went to heavier construction/farm use, the R4s were better. I was getting flats all the time with the turf/bars. Next time around I'll go with Ags since I don't expect to encounter the lawn at all.
