# Introducing the Galaxy Mighty Trac ND Skid Steer Tire

The new Galaxy Mighty Trac ND skid steer tire, a versatile L-4 tire for use on loose soils, snow and pavement, was launched today at ConExpo/CONAGG by Alliance Tire Americas. The Mighty Trac's siped block tread design and 52:48 rubber-to-void ratio combine powerful traction on dirt and snow with wear resistance on the road. That makes it an ideal tire for municipalities, rental companies and general contractors whose skid steers encounter a wide range of conditions on the job, says Ryan Lopes, ATA National Product Manager—Materials Handling and Solid Tires.

# Choosing an Application-Specific Skid Steer Tread Pattern 

Today’s skid steers work in a wide range of conditions, encountering everything from rock, mud, and sand to gravel, asphalt, and concrete. One thing that remains the same no matter the surface is the need to minimize spinning, maximize traction, and increase longevity. There’s no better way to accomplish all of these outcomes than with application-specific skid steer tires. Whether you’re looking for traction, speed, or durability—or some other attribute—we have a skid steer tire for you.

# Radial Tires Give This Farmer's Skid Steer a Performance Boost

A skid steer may be the most versatile piece of equipment on the farm—especially on a beef-feeding operation like Neil Grunzke's near Wells, Minnesota, where he uses his skid steer to move hay, load feed, shovel manure, and scoop snow. For most of their history these multi-purpose machines have been outfitted with basic, bar-tread, bias-ply tires. Last year, however, Grunzke upgraded his New Holland 225 skid steer to the radial [Alliance 550 MultiUse tire](https://atgtire.com/usa/product-detail/?product=245) to see if he could get longer service life out of his tires.

# The Galaxy Hulk: A Souped-up Solid Tire With More Rubber

Skid steers are commonly tasked with working in harsh, tire-killing terrain, leading to frustration with unanticipated downtime and tires that don’t meet expectations. When adding to our broad range of skid steer tires, it felt logical to offer a solid tire for the most brutal conditions—enter the [Galaxy Hulk SDS](https://atgtire.com/usa/product-detail/?product=119). Reminiscent of *Home Improvement* handyman Tim “The Toolman” Taylor’s catchphrase, “more power,” we souped up this special solid tire with more rubber! The result is a tire that increases machine uptime and operational efficiency, which adds up to extra dollars at the end of the year.

# Skid Steers, Snow Removal, and the Use of Radial Tires 

When the snow is stacking up outside as fast as the number of parking lots needing to get cleared, you have no time for skid steers slipping in wintery conditions. Slipping describes more than just the loss of traction your skid steer is experiencing on snow and ice—it also details the slipping away of fuel, time, and productivity. One way to improve the performance of skid steers used for snow removal this winter is by equipping them with radial tires.
