That's crazy! Looks almost like skid steer tires on the front.
Right front tire is worn out. Maybe it's a NASCAR tractor! :lol:

Hi guys.
Have seen an article in FFA mag (I think) about a company that does contract lawn mowing. One of their tractors was a Dexta with large fairly bald tyres on like that to avoid damaging the the grass.
Will look through my mags tonight to check.

Yeah, had and Uncle who worked for a firm growing turf in Suffolk, tyres on their machines damn near bigger than the tractors!
