Andy N. 2,142 #1 Posted March 1 Just curious if anyone has the Horseshoe brand of Ag tires installed on any of their WH's. I have never heard of the Horseshoe brand tires until I saw this on Amazon. A set of 2 23x10.5-12 8 ply is about the same price as 1 Carlisle tire of the same size 23x10.5-12, 4 ply. It's definitely a deal, but is it too good to be true. I have a spare set of 8.5" rims that are sitting around and need some tires and want to go the ag route. I have been happy with the Carlisle's on my 418-A that I installed a few years ago, but it would be great if I can get Horseshoes for my Horse at about 1/2 the price. Pics are from the Amazon post. https://www.amazon.com/HORSESHOE-23x10-50-12-Trencher-Tubeless-23x10-5-12/dp/B09XXGS9JJ/ref=pd_ci_mcx_mh_mcx_views_0?pd_rd_w=vk04k&content-id=amzn1.sym.225b4624-972d-4629-9040-f1bf9923dd95%3Aamzn1.symc.40e6a10e-cbc4-4fa5-81e3-4435ff64d03b&pf_rd_p=225b4624-972d-4629-9040-f1bf9923dd95&pf_rd_r=F260YZXZZF10HA9RTP07&pd_rd_wg=ddkqV&pd_rd_r=febe5d0d-c772-46d3-a2d5-c7d8847037dd&pd_rd_i=B09XXGS9JJ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 8,316 #2 Posted March 1 (edited) Do they list either the installed diameter or circumference?? All too many tires are not "true" to size...... Nice to see the lugs cross over center to give a better ride on pavement.... I looked at the ad in the link - these are listed as Nylon tires..... had a set of Nylon snow tires back in the '70's - they wore like iron, BUT, they developed a flat spot from sitting overnight - rode like the Flintstonemobile for a few miles! Being on a tractor may not be an issue.......... AND one of the comments said they were Taller than the ones replaced....

TonyToro Jr. 1,415 #3 Posted March 1 I also like the Chang Shin ag tires on Amazon for pretty cheap use them for pulling and do very well! https://www.amazon.com/Cheng-Shin-CST-23x10-5-12-Tractor/dp/B00BSXV980/ref=sr_1_1?crid=19XFYUNLBPGX2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.m76m7fQpntHMiaocJ19Oakxq5Rk0tr98NZSEOnJ3JZsVXua6RnuqNymOUTWNRYmG.7D5D9_3dVS_T_rkqR_vd8HM4GOid7hd3QJNzwhTDcn4&dib_tag=se&keywords=Chang+Shin+tires&qid=1709320059&sprefix=cheng+shin+tires%2Caps%2C84&sr=8-1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,315 #11 Posted March 1 I think a softer rubber compound and less ply’s will provide better traction. Personally would never buy a 10 ply for one of my tractors. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd agree for most situations. Ours is a little unconventional in that my heavier towing rigs could utilize the extra rigid sidewall and have zero air pressure and fluid filled while maintaining good load capacity. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,656 #13 Posted March 2 (edited) I had these 6 ply mounted on 8.5" rims at the tire shop, He put the first one he grabbed the small blaster the tire hardly moved. He had to charge up the big blaster to get the tire seated, Edited March 2 by Lee1977 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
