The set pictured is perfectly matched for these Yanmars. The tractor pictured, I'm pretty sure, is Hoyes' Dad's tractor. I have heard nothing but satisfaction from the guys who have bought this setup. Aaron and his guys are very knowledgeable and honest. I've bought a bunch of stuff from them and will be buying the turf tire set this year, hopefully.

Give us a report back after you try them out. I am especially interested in any difference in steering.

I put some truff tires on my 51 8N last summer, bladed snow up to 24 inches this winter and put the garden in this year, with no ballast in them, fuel econemy is up and I don't think I will add ballast in the tires. May try to find wheel weights so I can remove them. If you look at the new tractors, the tires look like a cross between lug and turf tires, lot shorter and wider lugs.

Finally I have the turf kit from Hoye on my tractor. Guys it was very good investment, the machine is much more stable, tires have a exelent grip and yes, the steering is little harder, but once you start moving, no problem at all. I love this setup !!!!

Welcome to the Forum Jason,
if you look through the thread the sizes are actually listed 5th post down,
and you could go to hoyetractor.com to check them out.
Cheers

little advise about Hoyes tire turf kit; before you install fronts, remove any washers, locking or flat from the four bolts holding the knackle, othewise they will scrape the rims (advise from Aaron) and he was right, as always.
