I put a loader on my H and with the added weight the skinny tires on the front want to sink in the dirt. I have seen car tires put on the front of the wide front end like I have on mine. I think the wider tire would help stop it sinking in. My question is what do I need to do to put a car tire on a swartz wide front and what size should I use.

THANKS

I wouldn't even think of anything except rib tires unless I had power steering, especially with a loader. Armstrong steering on a loader is bad enough without trying to make it harder. You should just use the widest rib tire that will fit, counter weight the rear end, and stay out of the mud LOL.

Chuck, I'm not sure car tires are the answer for any tractor for any condition, to me they spoil the appearance of a tractor and they take away the steering capability of a farm rib tire. I was thinking about your problem and the solution is in putting a better tractor tire on. Your H should have 550x16's so go to a 700x16 or a 750x16, this will beef up the capacity of the tractor, allow the tire to ride up on the surface, steer better and give you all the best of a good ribbed tractor tire. When it gets muddy and the snow becomes a factor, ribbed tires will be the only ones doing the steering..... good luck with your H and loader....Mike in Exeter Ontario

8 ply bias truck tires I could see, but not car tires. I would think heavy loader work would blow the sides out of 2 ply side walls in short order
