the ultimate fix for Kubota R4 tires

[fixNgo]

traded my plow truck for a Kubota L4240HSTC and a 72" pusher, but the R4 tires were a nightmare on hills and ice
instead of buying expensive chains that scratch the driveway, I decided to DIY some tire grooving.
Best $86 I’ve ever spent. I took a groover to the fronts and rears, and the traction is night and day
Plowing at 27°F used to be a slip and slide, but now this tractor is a tank. if you’re on the fence about grooving your tractor tires, do it!
that's my experience guys, got any similar one?

believe it or not, I also finished the tire grooving last night! took about 2hr freehand with a #4 blade at 5/16" deep. you know what? surprisingly low smoke! just kept the shop door open and I was fine.
definitely worth the effort!

That's great to hear it went well! It seems like grooving really improves traction. Two hours of freehand work for that kind of benefit is pretty solid.
