Wheel Horse Kid 105 #1 Posted June 7, 2012 Hello, I am thinking about getting some new rear tires for my (retired) pulling tractor. I am wanting something that is fairly cheap in price, something that will not tear up the yard, and something that would be able to hold up and do fairly well in competition if I would pull with it again. After much research, I have narrowed my choices down to 2 options. The first option is the Firestone Flotation 23 tires. The second option are the Carlisle Tru Power Tires. Which tire would you guys recommend and have you had any experience with either tire? Thanks, Taylor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joel_400 59 #2 Posted June 8, 2012 Firestones all the way! I would love to get a set for my stocker in the 23 10.50 12 size. Not only do they look way better but everyone i have talked to says they pull better too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deere Hunter 54 #3 Posted June 8, 2012 Go with the Firestones, the Carlisle Tru Power are the worst tires out there for pulling. One other option would be a set from Vogel Manufacturing. Their tires are designed after the old Carlisle Super Lugs. The only draw back to the VM tires, they are molded in China. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheel Horse Kid 105 #4 Posted June 8, 2012 Thanks for the advice guys! I think that I will go with the 23x10.50x12 Firestone Flotation 23 tires then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cory Zuill 7 #5 Posted June 14, 2012 I have tried Firestones, VM TT's, Tru Powers, Carlises Super Lugs (26's), and a couple other brands over the years... Firestones were my favorite, go for Firestones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
