I have a Bobcat 463 (teaspoon) I use only for snow removal in the winter. New in 03/04??? I use the 4' snowblower, 5' bucket and a pushblade. 700 hours on the machine so far and tires are worn enough that they may need replacing next season. Was wondering if anyone here with smaller machines have ever tried a good turf tire (mower) instead of the regular skid tire? Was considering the Carlisle-Multi Trac C/S lawn tire. It's 6 ply and has a fairly aggressive thread pattern. Sidewalls, I'm sure won't be as stiff as a skid tire. I may run into problems with that. Looking at the 23x8.5x12 as that's what on mine now. There just isn't an option out there for a standard 12" snow tire. Crazy idea? Any comments?? http://www.titantires.com/multi-trac-turf-tire.html Thanks, Steve
