    took a pair of good years the exact same as these off one of the tractors last year as i considered them bald. but they had the same thread left as these. ended up throwing them up on the silage pit to cover it but if i thought i would get this money or anywhere close to it I wouldnt be long bringing them back down. I thought nobody wont want tyres with as little tread as that? who buys them?

    Prices of new tyres have gone mad in the past 6 months!! I was pricing a tyre in Aug €400, now it's €550!!:eek:

    I do wonder about them, I got a pair of 13.6x36 complete wheels, with 50-70% tyres on them last year for €300, no idea how they're worth anything to be honest.


    twould hardly pay you to get them mounted surely?

    i have two tyres 600/65R38 about 80% worn. i won't be too hard on anyone interested in them.

    they are a bit awkward for putting up on the silage pit

    My 24 year old tractor, is pretty tierd and emotional, to say the very least at this stage:D
    All four types, are frankly 110% worn. When I got a price recently to have her reshod, I nearly collapsed.
    Made me think its not worth it, unless I get the tractor, entire thing refurbished at same time or trade up a couple of years.

    When I was a young lad, driving around and sticking the side brake doing the same as handbrake turn was great crack....

    Not so crazy about the idea now that I am going to be the one paying for tyres...and brakes...

    got a pair of michelin 38 shifted earlier in the year for a fair few quid, they had done 5000hr on my tractor without a problem and I sold them to a contractor as there was at least 2000hr left in them. Was putting on a full new set of Pirelli's so once I shifted the old ones I had cheap set of new tyres

    i have a set of klebers on the back. they seem to wear well. anyone any experiences with these type tyres. would be tempted to go for another pair when they wear hopefully in ten years time;)

    Nobody in their right mind would give that for bald tyres
