RIDE, TRACTION & PERFORMANCE
TJ Tractors
Tire manufacturers have found practices and procedures developed for bias ply tires may actually reduce the
performance of radial ply tires. Minor adjustments in the tractor weight split (front/rear), ballast, and tire inflation
pressure can dramatically improve performance of the tractor.
Proper weight split, ballast, and tire inflation can:
• Improve Traction
• Reduce Compaction
• Reduce Occurrence of Powerhop
