[QUOTE="Wayne440, post: 118284, member: 15549"] Note that I wrote "tire damage", not tire wear. As you probably know, Sunbelt offers a Rental Protection Plan - (the following from their site) "...includes protection for your tires. For every tire puncture occurrence, the first $50 of the puncture is covered under the RPP at Sunbelt Rentals..." This implies that they may expect a customer to pay for some kinds of tire damage. I agree that bottoming out a typical skid steer on dirt or gravel shouldn't hurt it beyond paint scuffs. But high centering on a big (maybe hidden) rock sure could. Some people might think those are the same thing. There was a 279 at our job today, it looked to have 8 or 9 inches of ground clearance, not sure how that compares with a 239. [/QUOTE]
