Tires What tires are these?

Can anyone tell me what these tires are called? They aren't quite as aggressive as the ag tires and not quite as tame as the turf tires. I forgot to ask the salesman what these tires are, but they seem to be a good common ground between the reg turf and R4's.

In case the link doesn't work, it is the tire shown on the Kubota informational brochure for the B7410-7610 tractors. Thanks.

If you are refering to the tires that are in color and not in the back round, they are the R-4's (industrial). I do not know what the tires are in the back round.

The foreground tires are R4. The background tires look like the Ag tires that come with a B series.

This is a good tire site to check your needs/requirements.

Okay, I was under the impression that the R4's were the Ag tire. Thanks! I am pricing out a 7610 right now and think the R4's are the way I want to go!

I love my r4's.

r 4's will give better traction than turf but less than ag. However ag will tear up your lawn if u are carefull with r-4's, no 90 degree turns. u should not tear up your lawn wait even my turf tires tear up my lawn

I have had all 3 types on various tractors and like the R4's better than ag's or turfs.

I filled the R4's on my B7510 75% full of water/antifreeze for a little better traction in the dirt and they still don't damage the yard the way ag tires would.

And stay OUT of 4WD when on a lawn or you will do some damage when you turn.

Hmmmmmmmm

I just started a thread about r4 and r1 tires.

I think that you will find that on a B series tractor the amount of camber that is dialed in when they are built is the main culprit in tearing up lawns when turning.
My neighbor has a B7610 and compared to my BX2200 (purchased from him), the 7610 has what appears to be almost twice the positive camber on the front wheels. He has turf tires on his machine as do I which leads me to believe that the tires have less to do with the problem than does the front end geometry as if he's not careful he tears up his lawn with the turfs when turning.

I believe that the b series tractors originally did not have power steering and more positive camber was built in to help them steer. (My opinion only).

Note: I also have turfs on my unit.

I have R4's on my B7610 and they don't chew up my grass when I'm in 2WD.
