Why choosing road-optimized tractor tires benefits farmers
As fields become farther apart, farm equipment like tractors spend more time on the road. Road-ready tires increase comfort, safety, and tire life, making them essential for modern farms. They are specially designed to endure high-speed travel, minimize wear, and provide stability in diverse conditions.
“Tire designs are evolving to include features that enhance the tire’s ability to perform at higher speeds and across a range of conditions,” says Bill Durivage, senior agricultural product strategy manager, Firestone Ag. “These features make tires more reliable and versatile for all types of farm operations.”
The benefits of road-optimized tires include improved tread patterns for reduced vibrations and a smooth ride, making travel between fields easier.
