Does anyone have any input on loader tires? We have a JD 444E and we need new tires for it....we always ran bias L2's and I was looking at bias L3's. L3's have a heck of a lot more meat to them, but concerned about the traction in the snow. Any help would be great...
Thanks,
Rick

I like the galxay L5 extreme tires. I am putting them on my JCB and Gehl this winter. They are great for snow with a really deep lug and self cleaning. not to mention they are designed for running on blacktop....

Just did a search. The L5's look like a real good design....plenty of tread. Im gonna call my tire guy to see if their available and how much. They look expensive seeing that we're looking at $500/tire for L2's. Thanks for the help
