I have two 574 I H tractors, one with and one w/o radials. I do not like the radials. The cleats on the radials I have do not clean themselves out and the tractor wants to spin in soft ground. I have had more problem also with the side wall on the radials as they protrude and are more vulnerable to puncture. The non radials tires are Firestone and their rubber treatment to ultraviolet light deteriation and weather cracking is superior to all other ag tires in my opinion. At equipment auctions start looking at the condition and the brand of tires and you will see what I have already observed. I will never pay the extra for a set of radials for a tractor but I would not run anything else on my cars and pickup.
