A good agricultural tire needs to have enough strength to push forward, but also it needs to not damage the soil. So, it needs to be aggressive and tactful at the same time. Such a model is the Firestone Farm Implement I-1. It goes on the free rolling wheels of wagons and trailers.
Firstly, the cut resistant sidewalls play an important role in protecting the rubber from damage and ensuring it lasts longer. The sides are the most vulnerable because they are thin compared to the tread. Thus, By making the sidewalls cut resistant, the Firestone Farm Implement I-1 has resistance from these hazards, making agricultural operations more efficient and less costly. They also withstand up to 4,680 lbs per single tire, depending on the size. Equally important, the specially formulated rubber increases rubber life in difficult weather. And, the shock fortified cord body offers even more protection by resisting punctures that can significantly damage the Firestone Farm Implement I-1.
Secondly, the circumferential grooves move water away. When a tire drives over wet or muddy ground, water can build up under the tire and cause it to slip or lose traction. So, having such a feature is beneficial as the risk of sliding reduces and safety increases. Moving on, the closed shoulders create a continuous surface at the edges of the Firestone Farm Implement I-1. This improves the ability to grip the ground. This makes the equipment feel more stable and reduces the chances of the vehicle slipping or tilting, especially when carrying heavy loads. Finally, the available sizes on the US market come in both 15'' and 16'' rim diameter options.
