I would go for the industrial tires, given your list of chores for the tractor. Turf tires CAN be easier on the lawn, but not when they're spinning....and you'll be doing lots of spinning when you head into the gravel pile or compost heap, trying to get a full bucket load with turf tires. If you envision doing lots of loader work, I would opt for a hydro. I love the convenience they offer when using the FEL.

The boomer you spoke of would do what you're asking, but it would be up to you to recognize what it's limitations were. Overtaxing it, or having to "ram" it to compensate for light weight will expose it's weakest link, sooner than later. Use it appropriately, and you will probably love it.


"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
