How Tractor Tires Hookup 

An ag tire’s ability to deliver traction has a large influence on its performance—whether it’s helping pull a field cultivator through tight soils or putting a big tractor’s 500-hp to the ground, a tire’s ability to deliver traction is of the utmost importance to farmers. Because of this, manufacturers spend millions of dollars to engineer tires that can generate forces in the field and on the road without slipping. No single part of a tire is responsible for delivering traction; rather, it’s a combination of parts working together to deliver maximum performance.

Alliance Tire Americas in the Field 

It’s hard to believe that we released our innovative Alliance Agri Star II tire just six months ago. Blending the fantastic performance and the low total cost of ownership ATG has built a reputation for, it’s no wonder that we’re already seeing so many of these tires on the farm and in the field. Accompanying many of those tires is the ATG sales team, helping dealers and customers alike to set up their equipment and maximize their return on Alliance tires.

The Development of the Alliance Agri Star II

Alliance Tire Group has a well-deserved reputation for building innovative products such as VF- flotation tires and roadable R-2 tires, along with creating category-defining technical “R-5” treads like the Alliance 550 MultiUse and Galaxy Garden Pro. The new Alliance Agri Star II is carrying on the tradition of innovation while living up to ATG’s commitment to producing the best performing (and best value) tires in the industry. Bringing the Agri Star II to market is the result of years of thought, energy, and engineering—here’s just a glimpse at what went into the creation of this pioneering product.

Introducing the Alliance Agri Star II

A unique, two-layered lug design delivers better traction, more biting edges and extra eye appeal in the new Alliance Agri Star II radial line of R-1 farm tires, launched today by Alliance Tire Americas, Inc. The new lugs combine a single-angle layer stacked on top of a wider, multi-angle lug in a design Alliance calls Stratified Layer Technology, which offers a more stable, longer-lasting tread bar with added biting edges for better traction.

Does Tread Depth Equate to Tire Longevity?

It seems so obvious: the deeper a farm tire’s tread, the longer it should last. After all, a tire with more tread should take longer to wear through its copious amounts of rubber than a tire with less tread, shouldn’t it? The answer isn’t so clear, however, as a multitude of characteristics—including tread depth—factor into the lifespan of a farm tire. Don’t let this misconception lead you astray when it comes time to buy farm tires; keep reading to learn all of the factors that go into getting the longest lasting tires for your machine.
