New TYM 2515R review

From what they told me, the bulletin described roughing up the portion of the rim where the tire bead is. Don't shoot the messenger, that's what I was told.

So, the question would be, did they do that on your TYM? I am just thinking of avoiding it in the future. It kinda surprises me that you slipped the tire to rim, before breaking tire to ground traction.

This is a common problem with liquid ballast, especially Beet Juice. It is not unique to any manufacturer. The solution is air pressure. Often times the pressure is less than 15lbs when this occurs. It can occur when no liquid is used but rare.

I always suggest bringing pressure up a little bit at a time till the problem goes away. This way you can find the happy medium between rim spinning in a tire and a good contact area between tire and ground. Hope this makes sense.

Or you could go the brute force method and just drill holes in the wheel and install sheet metal screws into the bead, like the 4wd guys used to.

Tractor is home and in the garage. They said they put tubes in the rear tires. There's snow on the ground and in RWD only the tractor lost traction a fair amount. Makes me wonder if they loaded the rear tires again.

If you push the schrader valve open on the valve stem you will know real quick if the tires are filled.
