I think r4's is over rated. I love the turfs in snow.

We have R4/Industrial tires on ours and for the varied uses, we have been very happy with the performance in mowing as well as for working with FEL, tiller, BB and even in the snow.
I have used Bar tires as well as Turfs and they worked fairly well too, but my overall preference on this size tractor, for my needs, I like Industrials.
It is kind of funn because when I saw it had Industrials on it, I told the salesman I didn't want them. He said, "Use them for a couple of weeks and if you don't like them, I'll swap them for anything you want at no charge." I still have them. As always YMMV.

Thanx for all the replies, I am still negotiating. Looks like I might be selling my L4350, something I said I would NEVER do!

I've said that before............well, no I guess I haven't said NEVER before but things change, right? and we NEED to trade for something more appropriate for the job.....right?
Oh yeah! I forgot, stuff improves or changes or something after we buy then we NEED the one with the bigger/smaller/wider/narrower/taller/shorter/louder/quieter/cooler/warmer/gas/diesel/electric/stereo/wifi/broadband/FM/etc..........

Think back over all the cars/trucks that many of us have owned over our lifetimes. They reflected our needs/funds/abilities at the time. Some times we were commuting, sometimes we were traveling a lot, sometimes there were kids, then no kids.
Life isn't static.
Trading/selling/buying tractors DOES cost. These changes sometimes cost us a little money. I don't advise reckless bouncing from fascination to fascination, but why have any tractor that doesn't meet one's needs? Too small doesn't work and too big doesn't work either. The operative word is "work".
That is what a tractor is for. Chores. Match that up and life is good.
