Well, others have disagreed too, but I am certain that a
11.00x16 will have a bigger footprint than a 20 or 22.5 tire.
After reading Nat"s comment, I realize that soil structure is
different everywhere, and different mud responds differently, but
I have worked with lots of different farm equipment with all
variety of tires, and a chopper box with 10 tons of corn silage in
will pull much easier with floatations than with truck tires in the
field. One wet fall, the buggers would keep going down until the
running gear was dragging.
One other thing to consider is that you will have to use the
brakes a lot more for steering. Front tires have ribs for a reason.
Once again, a chopper box or manure spreader with truck tires
will be the first to slide sideways on a greasy slope.
