Overview
A small-farm owner tilling soft ground gets a rear tractor tire with deep, dual-angled lugs that bite into wet soil. BKT uses a cut-resistant rubber compound and a heavy carcass that spreads weight for flotation over crops.
Extra-deep lugs and a damage-resistant compound give this tire traction and life in field work where cuts and chips are common. The listing does not say whether it runs tubeless or with a tube, and some of its size fields look off.
Who it's for
Growers using a small tractor for tillage, field prep and pulling in wet ground. Lawn owners who drive across groomed turf should choose a turf tread that will not dig in.
Pros and cons
- Extra-deep dual-angled lugs
- Grips well in wet soils
- Resists cuts, chips and punctures
- Flotation design protects crops and soil
- Tube or tubeless not stated
- Rim width field looks wrong
- Lugs will mark lawns
Performance notes
Traction comes from the deep angled lugs cleaning out as the tire turns, which matters most in wet, sticky soil. Running at the stated maximum pressure supports the full load but reduces flotation on soft ground.
