What style tire do you run on your tractor. I have ag tires on one and high flotation on the other. I think the ag tires steer much easier. Do any of you run the turf tires? Tracy

Howdy Tracy, My had turf tires and steered very easy. Just make sure you got right air pressure in or a little more.

Kurzy, I have not seen one with turf tires all way around. I wondered how they would steer and go on a slope. Tracy

Howdy Tracy, This forum hasn't let me put pics on for quite a while and done fooling around with it so I got pics of my AC 620 with turf tires. I can send with a email address. Thanks

I think the Allis original ag tires are narrower (and on 16" rims). That may be better for plowing, this tire I have is wide. Seems expensive. The front tire is ordinary turf type.

Hey Rod! What size tires are on your 720 up front? And is that the stock rim? Also, what make tires are those?

Mike, Yours looks nice with the 3 rib 5x12's on the front. I have a set of Deestone 4.00x12' 3 ribs, but wasn't sure about the extra weight on the front with the loader. Rods (RRheads) 720 looks like his front tires are a little more stout. I didn't want to go to wide my thought being it might be hard on the steering box and me steering it with a load in the bucket...
