Sounds like a real good price for that setup. By the way, the loader is an LX110 - I think the LA211 is the loader on the Kubota BX2230. I've got 70 hours on mine now, and I love it. Actually did some tilling yesterday on an area that I want to plant grass on next spring. It's dirt, not soil, so I wanted to get it churned up and aerated before the snows settle in, so that it'll be a little easier to work when I'm ready to do the lawn prep in the spring.
Mine came in with the turfs - couldn't get the bars from Case, but after a month and a half, I got the bar tires, and love them. I have a lot of dirt work to do, and the bars also did well in our first snowstorm a few weeks back. I've also found that the bar tires don't flatten the grass down as much as the turfs do, so I end up getting a much better looking lawn after a mow with the bar tires. I did notice that the bar treads leave indentations in the soil below when I felt around with my hands, but you can't see it through the grass.
If you have a lot of dirt work to do, I'd get the bar tires - they turn that little machine into a bulldozer. I bought the tires directly from Maxxis - they look to be the exact same tires that Case shows on the pics of the DX24E, and they are the same ones that Kubota puts on the BX23's. They are a little different than the R4's that JD puts on the 2210, but I think those style R4's will hold a lot more dirt and mud in the treads because the bars on that style are spaced much closer together. I can give you the contact at Maxxis if you end up getting the DX24E and want the bar tires. You can see the bar tires on my machine in my pics link below.
