I have one tractor (1811) with the Nanco ag tires. Weights. Filled.
I have one (782) with Trupower ags. Weights. Filled. I have one (149) with older Goodyear ags. Weights. I have a set of turf tires. Filled. Have had these on/off all of them at different times (usually with chains). I put chains on some/all of these in the winter. I live in the 'suburbs', albeit heavily wooded (about 3 acres), and hilly, and lots of granite rock. The problem I have with Turfs is that they dont grab aggressively enough and I end up spinning. Putting chains on helps, but if I hit a wet spot the chains load up quick in the mud. My drive is asphalt. Chains can just spin against the asphalt. Then in the summer, if I am pulling a load of wood up a hill and hit a sizeable rock again the chains just slip against the rocks. So summer the ags work better (and ride smoother) than the chains. Sometimes in the winter I put chains on the ags. This helps a lot when a layer of ice under the snow - the ags cut through the snow just fine but then hit that icy layer against the asphalt and spin on the ice. With some chains over them it seems to give a little more bite. These have worked better for me than turfs with chains. In winter if light snow where I can get it cleared with the blade to expose asphalt, the ags are good. When it gets icy underneath the chains go on. Ags for me. And chains to help with that icy underlayer. The turfs with chains just sit there. Just my unscientific experience which may not make any sense and I may change my mind at some point in the future.

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.
