[QUOTE="C-Ranch, post: 1284961, member: 24325"] It seems like a seldom if ever get a flat when farming normal ground "BUT" as soon as I hook up the brush cutter it never fails that I get a flat tire. 95% of the time its on one of the front tires, but I have pushed a stick through a rear before. None of my current tractors have anything in them, but my last tractor I had foam but in the front tires after the 3rd flat in two weeks. Funny thing is it cost me $300 per tire to have them filled with foam, and a month later the transmission froze up (2nd time). I sent the tractor down range and licked my wounds. Now, I stay out of the real nasty stuff and stay where I have already taken off the worst parts so it's easy to maintain with no flats. As for the rest I hire a guy who has metal tracks and he just tears up what I need done. I figure it's it's better to pay a little $$$ versus trashing my equipment and dealing with the flat tires and occasional breakdowns that always seem to occur when trying to knock down rough stuff.
