I am need of a pair of tires for my tractor. They are you normal 12-16.5 skid steer tire. But these are BALD.

I don't need a super lugger tire. Most of the use will be in grass and pavement. BUT it will also be used for snow removal on a paved drive and a very hilly gravel drive.

Has anyone had any experience with the Lifemaster tires? Or something similar

Well. I ordered up the BKT Sure Trax HD. They should be here next week. Have to see how they work

Here they are. Now to just dismount the tires, sandblast and pain the rims then put new tires on

Those are some nice fronts!

My rears are BKT 567's.

They are really a unique tread pattern for an industrial rated tire.

For some reason my IPad will not let me drag a pic into the attachment area, huh...

They are a nice looking tire. They just don't come in my size in the rear. It is too bad they don't make the Sure Trax HD in my 16.9-25 for the rear

I'd think that those would be awesome on the rear in lieu of turf tire, as long as the ply-rating were high. My rears are more aggressive than R-4's. The dealer told me that TYM is phasing out their use due to high cost as opposed to regular R-4's.

So far I like them. For a pic, just google BKT 567 tires...

Well, I found a match to my front tires, the BKT TR 461. I am really considering buying a pair for the rear. My GoodYear long bar/short bars are leave pretty good tread makes in my lawn
I am just winding if anyone has any experience with the BKT? I have not gotten the Front on yet to see how they do on the lawn
