Tire pressure

What tire pressure should I run for a worker tractor like pulling things plowing snow plowing pushing dirt and gravel and snow and ploughing dirt rear and front

I run mine somewhere between 10 and 14 psi.  Both the front and rear.

 

If you run too much pressure, the center of the tread will bludge, forcing the edges of the tread away from the ground.  Too little, and the center of the tread bows up and away from the ground, leaving the edges of the tread doing most of the work.

We run 8 to 10 rear. 12 to 15 front.

Eric runs tubes in his tires and can get by with less pressure then a tubeless tire. As said above you want to keep the tread level on the ground.

You might not be able to do that with a tubeless 2 ply and keep the tire on the rim. I took a set of 950 2 ply off my 520 when I got it when the tire

level out there wasn't pressure left to keep the tire on. Did I say I hate 2 ply tires.

My C-175 book says 12 PSI front and rear for the 2 ply tubeless Turf Savers.

 

I've got 4 ply Turf Masters on there as of this season and running 12 PSI tubeless has not been a problem, but neither was it a problem with the 2 ply either.

I just put enough in to take the bulge out of the side wall
