[QUOTE="John SD, post: 1314087, member: 14713"] I had a set of 18.4-38 Armstrong (now Titan) on a Ford 8600 I purchased in 1990. No complaints. They were in good shape and lasted over 20 years. Outside most of the time and hundreds of heavily loaded road miles on them. I've also had Firestones on hay/feeding tractors that lasted close to 30 years. For some reason there were 3 Goodyears and one Firestone that were original on Dad's IH 210 swather (7.60-15 traction implement) All tires lasted 30 seasons, but the Firestone aged the best. My MF 2775 had Goodyear 18.4-38 radials on it when I bought it. Both looked good, still had good tread, and were not weatherchecked, but the sidewalls in both failed about 10 yrs after I purchased the tractor :x [/QUOTE]
