I’m not big into pulling...I participate just for fun in just a couple stock antique pulls a year. One is an antique pulling association sanctioned transfer sled pull at our local tractor show. The other is a very casual deadweight pull among friends behind the beer tent at the firemen’s carnival.

Which lug angle is better? Hard to tell, a lot depends on conditions. My Super M has nearly new 23 deg tires. It consistently finishes in the top 3 when the track is soft and loose. But when the track’s hard they don’t grip as well - I generally end up spinning out and finishing somewhere in the middle of the pack.

The Super H has mis-matched 45 deg lug tires with maybe 50% tread left. It seems to do a bit better when the track is harder. However it may be as much due to the worn condition of the tires as to the 45 deg lug angle.

Incidentally both my tractors scale within about 75# of their class limits. Consequently I cannot shift weight around in a quest for more traction – I gotta take what I have. This just adds more uncertainty to my “which is better” tire comparison.
