A quick walk around our Kubota parking lot to look at the different options you have for tires when ordering a Kubota. Which one is best for your application?
It's a pleasure to witness a presentation from someone who knows the product, any product, so well and can effectively communicate its benefits and applications. Nice job.
I have watched a few tractor videos lately. Your presentations are second to none thank you for sharing your knowledge. Andrew Carnegie would have been proud of you.
Excellent video. I have been watching many of your videos. Thank you for all the new to me knowledge. I wish you were in my state of Maine. keep making them and I will keep watching them. I need all the knowledge I can get before I purchase a tractor. Thanks again. Maine North Woods Hunter (Shane)
Neal, I’m new to your channel but could you do some safety videos on how to mow hills and steep grades? My 36 yo son bought a L25 mostly loaded with a finish mower. But the Kubota Dealer in Atlanta Texas did a horrible job in sizing up his needs. Just to keep us from being killed I put special built 5” wheel extensions on the rear and 3” on the front. Then alcohol/water ballast in the rear tires and even that you need to go slow and get experienced mowing hilly terrain. These hills will kill your ass and with a dealer in the area, that knows the area, they did a horrid job with this first time buyer. I guess they figure if they can sell them one tractor in a lifetime that’s good enough.
I have 1500 hours on my BX2200 with bar tires and they do not hurt grass at all and provide great traction. 95% of my hours have been mowing. The bars are much better in wet areas than R4s too. Once you get bigger and heavier things change but bars are a great option on a BX and the only only I would have have much time with them on these lil tractors.
I took the 9.5x 24s off the front of my M-7060 and installed the 320-80R-20s. Changed the whole tractor very much for the better! That 9.5-24 shouldn’t even be on an M-7060. Radial front now but 16.9-30 bias in back, less binding of the gears in 4 wheel drive, Way better with the 84” L-45 bucket fully loaded.
I just picked up a new to me Kubota M4900 Cab 2wd for cutting my property. Machine weights 4300 lb and the rear tires are filled. Should I leave them filled for just mowing? It’s is beneficial or just making bigger ruts when wet..
Many options in types of tread but nothing on sizing. Bx are awesome for mowing and low center of gravity due to smaller tires. Why don't they offer a B series with smaller tires? Can bx tires be used on a B series or will mower deck bottom out with little to no remaining deck height adjustment? Many many people are adding jeep wheel spacers for better stability. Different offset rims and smaller tires would be awesome to see someday as an option especially if gear ratios could be taken into account for 4x4 use.
Replaced my turf tires on my Zd1200 60” deck after 50 hrs run time and leaky tires from day one, with tweels. Performance improved by 25% or more worth extra money.
Could you explain the different type of fluids I guess I’d call them that tires are filled with. I’ve heard of beet juice, calcium etc, I’ve also heard of pro’s and con’s for these fluids? Thanks for any help
I have a 2000 New Holland TC18 and I have Turf Tires 29x12-15. I would like to change over to Industrial or Ag tires but find that New Holland my not make the rim for that change anymore. I have limited space on the inside of my Turf tire now as it is. Can you suggest a fix for my problem? Any help is appreciated.
What is the size of the wheel supplied with the bar-turf tire on the B series? It's listed as a 31 x 15.5 x 15 size tire with a recommended wheel width of 13". (I believe the standard B series rear wheel is 15x9). Also, are there any concerns with 4x4/ power train functions (as it relates to front-to-rear tire diameter ratios) when replacing front tires with a larger diameter? ... More specifically, Kubota pairs this 31" bar-turf rear tire with a 22" front tire - would replacing the front with a 23" alter/damage the power train or influence potential warranty claims? The same question could be applied to replacing the 31" rear with a 32-33" tire.
I didn’t think they made bias ply tires anymore since cars and trucks nowadays used radials. I think Allis Chalmers tractors at one time had rear tires that could adjust in and out from the driver seat. (WD45 in the early 50s)
Weighted down, while in 4x4 plus sometimes standing on the diff lock should be enough, if not chains provide ultimate grip BUT for cons; they should bot be used on blacktop or concrete driveways.
hey Neil, quick question are the remotes for tractor operations available in the US? I saw a video of a guy with a wireless remote operating his tractor, and while I don't see the need to drive it remotely it would be cool while operating some pto equipment. Is it something that can be retrofitted to an older Kubota?
Messick Farm Equipment ya just curious, I just assumed it was a Kubota part because it was orange, but it could have been an aftermarket or home made deal
My L3200 came with R4 tires but I don't really do much turf work with it. Can I put R1 tires on the same rims? My goal is to get the best traction with a 2-12" bottom plow.
Greetings at Messick's tractors. When this video pops up on TH-cam you are standing by a tractor and it looks like the tires are a Goodyear / Titan LSW (Low Sidewall). Are there LSW tires available for tractors between 50hp and 75 hp tractors...?
Neil, I just damaged my front rim on my bx 2380. Not real bad, did not break the bead, I put it back as good as I could with a ball peen hammer and also noticed a small gouge in the rubber on side wall of that wheel. Is this a problem? Gouge is only 1/8 in deep and very small. Did not and does not loose air? What do you think?
hello, out of curiosity, what kind of tire would you recommend for snow removal? We use a rear mounted blower on our L4400. most of the drive ways we clear are pavement. Currently we have R3 turfs on (because of the summer use on the tractor), but they're terrible. Wondering if R1's would be a better alternative for our application; and if so, what kind of change in traction could we expect? Thanks
sierradriver 101 I know it's a lot smaller machine, but I use a 90's Craftsman GT with front blade & R1 ags for snow removal. The difference between turfs & ags in snow is incredible. With turf tires I couldnt move anything deeper than 4 to 6" without spinning out. With R1 tires & 50lbs of fluid in each wheel it will plow 10-12 deep snow as good turfs with chains on them. Basically it depends on the surface of driveways, if you aren't picky enough to care if you get marks from tire chains, throw chains on your turfs, otherwise get a set of R1s.
awesome thank you ! after researching online, all i found out is people preferred turfs. in all honestly, i couldn't believe that. we've been using turfs for years and to plow anything deeper than about a foot all we do is spin. I always figured R1's had to be better. thank you for confirming ! as far as tire chains go, 95% of the driveways we plow are paved, so chains aren't really in the question. lol
I just want some slicks to use when drag racing my tractor, but cannot find them. I guess I'll have to settle for turf tires when I take her to the drag strip.
Oops... never mind, found it. Looks like a M5 low-profile. I was sort of figuring that looked like an orchard model but haven't seen many of those in orange. :-)
You can mix. The important thing is that the circumference of the tires is correct for the tractor, so that the front and rear wheels will pull at the correct ground speeds in 4 wheel drive.
We have a 2003 kubota BX 1800 with lug tires and we found that running it on the road as much as we do the front tires are rubbed through on the inside half of the tire ............ how much would New lug tires be for the front ???
I wish my dealer would have discussed tire options with me, I would rather have in hindsight a ag tire, instead of a industrial tire, my L4701 can only handle two bottom plow, a ford 8N can do that with half the horse power, that's sad and frustrating.
I have a BX23s with R4 Industrial tires. Has been very wet this spring. I seem to be tearing up the turf all the time when using the loader or excavator, especially the loader. I am a newbie, my first tractor. Am I doing something wrong or does the happen often?
Well, both the loader and backhoe are meant to break the ground and dig, but I'm guessing you mean while these are in the air. If you're running the machine in the high gear while driving then yeah, that could be it. I would also suggest checking yourself to see if you locked the differential or put it in four wheel drive. If not, then it's probably just how wet it has been. Besides weight on the loader which puts weight on the front tires which do the most rubbing on the turf which can cause it to sink in and tear it up, that's the only thing I can think of other than it just being the condition of your property. Hope this helped, if not, sorry.
Well, 4WD runs drive force to all four tires at once right? Basically, with that front tire pivoting at the same time that it's pulling the weight of the tractor it digs in, and then when the rear tire goes over it it kind of squishes it in and tears it out a little bit. I would even go as far as to say you don't need 4WD for loader work or backhoe work, especially backhoe work. Just set the parking brake for backhoe work. You really only need four wheel drive if you get stuck or don't have enough traction with just the rear wheels. You might want to use the differential lock if one tire gets stuck and the other is still spinning. If you're gonna be using the machine for clearing snow this winter, that's when you're really going to need to put in four wheel drive. And don't worry about tire chains if you're only getting like a foot of snow. We had turf tires on our old BX2230 and we used a snow blower and pushed snow with that with no problem, no tire chains needed. That's not to say that you don't need them, but I suggest that you try clearing snow without them once or twice the first times around. You'll see if you need them then, if you do have to clear snow. I also suggest getting a front plow, either for the loader or the quick hitch, over a snowblower because from personal experience, you're gonna get a lot of snow back in the face snowblowing with an open station tractor such as a BX. Plows still work for long driveways fairly well as long as you angle them, but if you get a foot and a half or higher of snow then you should consider a snowblower because a plow will take longer with that much snow. Sorry for wasting your time with the whole snow part if you don't get any. Hope that explains it, anyways. Always happy to help someone out. Always even happier when they accept that help. Take care.
KD 68 also reduce your weight on the machine. I.E. the backhoe is a lot of rear weight if you are not using it. Most people I know that mow with their tractors will remove the loader even while mowing. Basically I suggest being as less aggressive as you can he for whatever job you are doing for your turf. 2wd with out diff lock is less aggressive than with diff lock 4 wd with lots of weight (loader with full bucket and backhoe) being the most aggressive.
ok thanks! we have turfs on right now, but we were looking for more traction. when it comes to blowing anymore than about a foot of snow the turfs really fall short
What do you mean by a down pressure kit? I serious doubt you really want a down pressure on your 3 ph. Any lost of traction is counter productive! There are a few implements that I have seen that have down pressure options, but all that come to mind are used in a stationary position (post hole augers come to mind).
You forgot to mention that when you inflate the tires on the bigger tractors, often you will fill a good portion of them with calcium water for extra weight and to help maintain the life of the rubber.
I use rice tires on my lawn tractor they seem to do the job just fine but you have to be careful not to go any where that has grass on it making my lawn tractor extremely useful 😂
stoney carter uh ya, that’s what he said , get the tire where it matches the work you will be doing most of the time. For instance I have R4 on my L series, but I do landscaping type of applications, loading large rocks , moving fell trees, topsoil , gravel, etc... been in plenty of “muddy” yards or converting an overgrowth area without much sun and have had no problems with the R4, and look I didn’t till the yard up. If you are almost always in foot thick deep mud then by all means get the R1s
stoney carter agreed like I said and he said use what is best for you, that is why they have options, “wet” and “uphill” are subjective/relative terms. Your original reply implied that the R4s has no place and they do, In my application I would never buy R1s because like you said they would suck for me.
@@CQN1HN I agree but for me working 134 Acres the R4 are no good on hills and wet or muddy places the R4 tires are for hard compact places and some wet, but now they are coming out with a cross with better tread
I have R4’s on my MX6000 and I just pulled large sections of black oak up a wet steep hill right after a rain storm to get it on flat ground to make it easier to cut up. That’s with only filled tires for ballast.They worked great.
You English are weird - you should start with a surface and a season. Tires for ice and snow and dirt and inclination - is the road flat or it is a hill, is there a gravel or a concrete or a pavement. And most important - tell them that all Kubota easily goes uphill forward at 10 degrees but stack at 5 degrees driving rear end first. And only after that - start talking about different manufacturers.
Very informative. But what is wrong with your left leg and foot. It’s annoying and offensive your presentation of the sole of your shoe, and it distracts from your objective.

Go 2 wheel drive and slow down. That should solve it.
KD 68 also reduce your weight on the machine. I.E. the backhoe is a lot of rear weight if you are not using it. Most people I know that mow with their tractors will remove the loader even while mowing.

Hi Love the name.

Actually prefer turf style tires, good homeowner traction in all around work. Plus that style are getting more popular on loaders for construction
agreed.
Can you tell me what the "B" and "M" (in the series) stands for?
+Stan Wilhite nothing really it's just a series designator
THX....always wondered!
B=Boys size tractor
M=Man size tractor
Just kidding, I have no idea what the letter designates.
:-)

...and in the _k series:
c=child
d=dad
n=(your word here)
which tire chose would you recommend for blowing snow? between the 3 most common tire options that it.
We generally would recommend R4, but I hear a lot of people happy with Turf as well. AG I'm sure it would do fine, I'm not sure you can lose.
ok thanks! we have turfs on right now, but we were looking for more traction. when it comes to blowing anymore than about a foot of snow the turfs really fall short
I have a old L3300 and was wondering what the 01 designates ?
+victor castle series
What about R14...?
Video was made before they were an option
did anyone catch the new holland and case balers go by
+Kellie Overgaard we sell case and new Holland as well
how simple is a case farmall 100c to operate. thats my uncles raking tractor
Messick Farm Equipment Aren’t New Holland tractors formerly Ford Tractors?
More or less, yes.
Hi
I have a B3150 with turf tyres, will it harm my tractor if I was to fit R1 or R4 tyres to the back only to improve traction
Thanks
Michael
As long as the rolling radius is okay
Messick's thank you
Michael
Does that M series have a down pressure kit on it?
No, it's a strut for taking up some ROPs weight
What do you mean by a down pressure kit?
I serious doubt you really want a down pressure on your 3 ph. Any lost of traction is counter productive!
There are a few implements that I have seen that have down pressure options, but all that come to mind are used in a stationary position (post hole augers come to mind).
You forgot to mention that when you inflate the tires on the bigger tractors, often you will fill a good portion of them with calcium water for extra weight and to help maintain the life of the rubber.
Yes, but no one uses calcium anymore because its corrosive.
@4:16 shit. That's a big backhoe.
I use rice tires on my lawn tractor they seem to do the job just fine but you have to be careful not to go any where that has grass on it making my lawn tractor extremely useful 😂
bias ply is fiberglass wrappings radial tire is all steel wrappings thats the diff
if your useing your tractor in wet or muddy place you need a R1 the R4 tires suck I would never buy a tractor with R4 tires
stoney carter uh ya, that’s what he said , get the tire where it matches the work you will be doing most of the time. For instance I have R4 on my L series, but I do landscaping type of applications, loading large rocks , moving fell trees, topsoil , gravel, etc... been in plenty of “muddy” yards or converting an overgrowth area without much sun and have had no problems with the R4, and look I didn’t till the yard up. If you are almost always in foot thick deep mud then by all means get the R1s
@@CQN1HN you must be on flat ground because if its wet and you try to go up hill with R4 you wont make it they suck for what I do R1 is the best
stoney carter agreed like I said and he said use what is best for you, that is why they have options, “wet” and “uphill” are subjective/relative terms. Your original reply implied that the R4s has no place and they do, In my application I would never buy R1s because like you said they would suck for me.
@@CQN1HN I agree but for me working 134 Acres the R4 are no good on hills and wet or muddy places the R4 tires are for hard compact places and some wet, but now they are coming out with a cross with better tread
I have R4’s on my MX6000 and I just pulled large sections of black oak up a wet steep hill right after a rain storm to get it on flat ground to make it easier to cut up. That’s with only filled tires for ballast.They worked great.

That John Deere was smaller than that kubota so the kubota obviously won
There is no Deere in this video?

You drive R4s on pavement and you'll think you're on steel lugs. Worst ride I've ever had.
+OldTractors I do it every day, can't ever say i've felt the tread.
Messick Farm Equipment I did it for three hours once, at that was enough. Perhaps they ride better on turf or dirt.
my R4s must be defective cause i feel more like being on a carpet when driving on pavement or it is my brain that is. lol
I have R4 tires on my BX2360 and it rides fine down the road. I have a smooth ride.
...."guys shopping for tractors".....Don't Women also shop for tractors...??....
No, they're all barefoot in the kitchen. Take your petty political correctness elsewhere.
Ag tires ftw. I get tired of seeing these retired wanna be farmers and there r4 tires.

You English are weird - you should start with a surface and a season.
Tires for ice and snow and dirt and inclination - is the road flat or it is a hill, is there a gravel or a concrete or a pavement.
And most important - tell them that all Kubota easily goes uphill forward at 10 degrees but stack at 5 degrees driving rear end first.
And only after that - start talking about different manufacturers.
Very informative. But what is wrong with your left leg and foot. It’s annoying and offensive your presentation of the sole of your shoe, and it distracts from your objective.
