- The Hefty Brothers got the ultimate planting equipment upgrade! A PTG central tire inflation system + Michelin VF YIELDBIB tires. Stay tuned because they're going to test how many bushels farmers can gain by running lower tire pressures.
----------
Hefty Brothers Planting Setup
Tractor: John Deere 8R 370
Planter: John Deere DB60
Central Tire Inflation System:
PTG RDS Tractor System with External Display + AIRBOX Planter System
Tires:
Front Tractor Tires: Michelin YIELDBIB VF 420/85R34
Rear Tractor Tires: Michelin YIELDBIB VF 480/80R50
Center Planter Tires: Alliance 381 Agriflex+ VF 445/50R22.5

Which would you choose for planting? VF tires + a central tire inflation system or tracks?
Looks like a good system.
When it’s all said & done, it’s putting seed in the right place, at the right rate, $$$$&
Hopefully the fields that are wet will not mess up that new air system that you are installing on that tractor...
It's in wet conditions where these systems really shine. The larger footprint with the lower tire pressure makes a huge difference for flotation and traction. Aside from completely burying a piece of equipment in mud, the system will hold up without a problem.
