Point of wider/twin tires?

[Lycon]

Do tires actually matter? I know the thin tires dont destroy crops but other than that.
Does it matter if you go standard or wide? Or double? Or take wheel weights?
Any point of using anything other than standard?

Twin tires give you more grip. If you have a tractor that slows down greatly on a hill, try adding twin ties to all wheels then try it, you will notice a difference (a bit anyways).

You could do a test. Someone did one in FS22 and posted it on youtube.

Wheel weights definitely add grip. Some implements even specifically say to use them. Double tires seem to be more for lateral stability, especially across slopes with 3-point connected tools.

idk ive used tools that require them without weights just totally fine.

so wider tires would also add grip then? Hmmh

Twin and wider tires also help disperse the weight of the equipment. IRL this helps with soil compaction issues, with ground deformation in the game maybe it affects that a little, but I haven't tested it.

With tracks you can accelerate over plowed field easily, might be the same with doubles

[AoD_lexandro]

Doubles will give you better traction in wet conditions, where the field is already soaked. Single wheels can get bogged down and get stuck in muddy terrain when turning so they resolve that without needing tracks.

Basically nothing except for the weights and narrow (want destroy crop)
Wider should prevent compacting soil, but soil compacting is not added in fs25 for stupid reasons.
Double make no difference since there is no mud in the game.
