Well, this 7016 is always trying to find ways to irritate me. I am giving it anther chance and have it set up for winter duty. loaded AG tires and weights. Will mount the blade soon.

Do you know that all four tires are on backwards, might get better traction if they were turned around David

Yep, I put the back on backwards and since they are so heavy since they are loaded I made the front match. If I have a traction problem I'll change them.

Always heard when ags are used on the front without 4WD to orientate them as you have them.

I agree Dan, I was always taught non-driven = outside of V points forward, driven= outside of V points rearward... This keeps them from loading up.... Jon either way those ags look mean on that tractor...

And if primary use of rear blade is pushing in reverse, then the rears are on proper.

I already switched the rears but kept the front ones as is :)

Jon, with the fronts, curious what you notice as far as traction goes, and how it may affect the turf. I'm planning on using a set of front AG's I have on my Squire, and am curious how they handle.

Josh, traction is great. It really bites in when turning, however mine are also loaded so they are not ideal on the lawn as they can really dig in. If I mow with them in the spring I tear it up! But since I really have this setup for snow plowing I love them since they turn really well in snow.
