"Michelin is my #1 preference for ag tires because they flat outperform every other tire."

"I uses both Michelin® MachXBib® radials and Agribib® radials on my corn and soybean farm.

I like Michelin radials so much I generally keep my tires when I trade in my tractors. Last time I did that, my year-old Michelin tires had an inch more tread than the brand spanking new Goodyear tires off the truck. Another farmer nearby uses Firestones. He’s used two sets in the time I’ve used one set of Michelin tires, and I plan to use this same set again. Now, when I trade tractors I frequently give up the tires that come with the new tractor and have my dealer put on my two- or three-year-old Michelin tires.

I first decided to try Michelin tires in 2004. By the fall of 2006, we were using Michelin MachXBib tires and Agribib radials on our John Deere 9620, 8530 and two 7920 tractors as well as our John Deere 4920 sprayer.

I like the improved durability of the Michelin tires, but there are lots of other benefits. For instance, the ride is so much more comfortable. I’ve also reduced soil compaction and less soil compaction spurs higher yields. For me, Michelin is my No. 1 preference for ag tires because they flat outperform every other tire."
