What kind a tire would be the best for offroading but the least strain on my transaxle?

so i am thinkin about what tires i should try to find for my tractor i was thinkin those nubby kind. Here in my town they are $50 for two and they fit my rims but i was wondering what kind a tire would be the best for offroading but the least strain on my transaxel

ATV tires are good for mud and offroad- the extreme tire would be an AG tire ( like a downsized version of a tractor tire)- but those get expensive....

Ive run just plain turf tires on my tractors ( ones they came with) - they performed really good in mud , water n climbing - altho when the mud get really thick is when y get stuck and theyre terrible in the snow but fun on a frozen pond.

Lowering the pressure is also better for traction - if you have to drive a short distance you might want to consider a small air pump to air the tires back up- to keep the tires on the rims itd probably be best to use tubes.

Ok thanks

I like AG tires, but ATV tires would be just as good. My best advice, get what you can afford and have fun. Cheap and free are always good, with a little ingenuity you can find many uses for many different items.

i'm a newbie but i agree with these guys. i like the ag tires like they have at farm stores but they can be expensive.
cheap and free is always good

i personaly like ag tires,but other atv tires work better, you want something with a deep and agressive tread. Ag tires are good for the mud but suck for climbing hills and rock crawling, knobby atv tires work good for climbing hills, rockcrawling, but suck for mud, but if you find a tread pattern that look like and Ag tire but has more lugs and different shapes, it will more likely preform good in all of them if you know what i mean

I have USED quad tires on the back of torque and i have troubles GETTING stuck i get such great traction.

damn you all with your awesome swamps!!!!!

there is basically NOTHING near me

Could always ride your tractor all the way down here! What would make it even better is if I had permission to use 'em!

I love the ag tires. I picked up a set of good ones at TSC for 45$ each.. I got 15% off.

THAT is a great steal! lucky you

personally if i had the money i would but a set of Kenda executioners the look awsome

YOu'd think they're better, but from what Ive heard bearclaws out perform in most terrains (sand, mud etc). Those look awesome though. How much to they go for each? 0.o

Id go for the AG tires - man the agway would look sweet with a set of 4 of them.

Thing is with bearclaws, they are basically bar tread tyres, but designed not to clog with mud, and also with extra tread on the edges to aid traction when the tyres arent level. Of course, if you cant tell, im totally biased towards them!

just wondering how would the kenda executioners be out preformed by the bearclaws, when the executioners have a little bit more than and inch of tread depth and the bearclaws have less than an inch. also you can get the executioners in sizes from 25 to im not sure but bigger starting at 63$ a tire

thats my view! what has more is BETTER!!

I got a 1999 sears garden tractor that already had ag tires and the are awsome in deep mud only if you got the right pulley set up so then the mun can fling off the tire so it will not be come a slick
The best thing is that i got the whole tractor and 3 turf tires for the back and 4 for the front for free just had to pick it up

Sounds like a good deal to me!
