bob's toy 32 #1 Posted August 20, 2016 I am now ready for some ag tires for my restored 1267. Looking at Miller tires I see the Firestone's but very pricey. What is the best brand for the money. I have looked at BKT. Carlisle and the Firestone brand but not sure which would have the best fit and good looks. Anyone have an idea, maybe even shoot me a picture of what you have on your WH. Any help would be a big help. By the way I am ordering the 3 rib front tires from Miller tonight. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdleach 525 #8 Posted August 29, 2016 In another post concerning hides (rubber), I mentioned that I too, had been doing the tire study thing. After consideration of numerous factors, such as my utter contempt for most Asian goods, quality, durability, appearance, and of course price. I have chosen the Carlisle route. As a disclaimer regarding American products, let it be known that Carlisle is now owned by an international rubber corporation, Indian if I remember correctly. Still, most of their rubber is still made here in the same old plant. New company name is Calstar. The above said, I found the Carlisle Tru-Power ag. type tires to be quite good looking, and appear to have a deeper cleat than the others. It fairly breathes "TRACTOR". As for the most reasonable vendor, Summit Racing had the 23X8.50-12 for around $84 each, and free shipping. It was the best all-around deal I could source. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Bish 34 #9 Posted August 29, 2016 Firestone from Miller are salty. But they look very good and wear like iron. The Carlisle area good quality tire as well 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
