Default need tire opinions
I would like to know everyones opinion on some tires. Ive been looking at the firestone 23* ags for awhile and wanted to know what everyone thought of them and if they are worth the money.

Also want some opinions on the firestone tri ribs. I do know that some are not made in the USA and dry rot realy quickly. But im interested in knowing how they ride and feel when turning compared to V61's.

And this is just a general opinion reguarding QL's (namely my 1450). Would front ags look and ride better on it than say V61's or Firestone tri ribs?

Thanks in advance and look forward to reading everything!!!

I really like the look of ags all around. I'm still shopping the ag tires myself, so I don't have a lot of opinion of the brands and such.

My opinion is the Firestones are the best if you can find and afford them. I settled for Carlisles and I love them. Don't skimp on tires, they are worth the extra money spent for good ones. Here are mine on my 102.

I love me tru powers! I want a set of V61's for my QL and for my loader tractors the tri ribs really help with steering. I'm not a big fan of front ags but love rear ags!

Thanks for reminding me, Duke. I also want a set of the V61's for the front tires.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
