I have gone through just what you are experiencing and spent a bunch of time and money getting just what I want.....had to try them out and if they didn't suit me, look farther and I have several machines that needed the conversions. I started with bar-lugs and they just didn't grab like I wanted on sloping terrain, like pond banks and such. So I went with something like: https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/723/70611/Douglas-MX-V4-Tire?term=20x10-8+tires

These "snow stud" TYPE tires can't be beat for the purpose if you ask me. The thing I like about this particular tread arrangement, is that the corners are rounded. Expect to get some disturbances of your turf since you are looking for a traction tire.....can't have both in one. But you can be careful when maneuvering around obstacles.....it's all in how you handle the sticks as to whether studs tear up your turf or not.

A lot of the snow tread studs have sharp edges and these help to dig into the turf when cornering whereas the rounded edges like the one shown are a lot less destructive yet get you the holding power you need for other applications.

One thing I noticed in trying to get the right tire size is that just because the tire says AxB-C, A being overall diameter when mounted and filled with air, B being overall tire width.....on these the actual tread width, and C wheel diameter required for mounting to your wheels, is that the OD isn't necessarily what the numbers say. A turf tire sits on the turf, the studs sit in the turf. Expect to have a variation.

Just because this site may not have your desired size, there are lots more out there. The field of ATV tires is very competetive and lots of tires at great prices and fast shipping. I got some of mine with free shipping and in 2 days from date of placing order.

Good luck.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a ...
