“The VX-TRACTOR has proved itself to be an outstanding performing tyre, especially under intensive road-use and in very demanding field conditions, offering the best of both worlds to the farming community within one product.

It is constructed from robust casings with extra-deep and extra-long lugs, ensuring outstanding field traction and extremely long wear life. This means that farmers can go further and get more done, time and time again.”

The tyre comes with a comprehensive 10-year warranty from the date of tractor registration, underscoring its reliability and the confidence placed in the product.

The current selection includes: Rears 600/65 R38 with 480/65 R28 or Rears 600/65 R38 with 540/65 R24, and Rears 650/65 R38 with 600/65 R28 or Rears 650/65 R38 with 540/65 R28.
