Which harvester tires work best in wet fields and heavy loads?

Choose high flexion or very high flexion harvester tires to carry heavy loads at lower pressure for a wider footprint and better traction. The larger contact patch helps protect soil and reduce sink in muddy harvest conditions.

Increased Flexion vs Very High Flexion vs standard radial for harvesters - what is the difference?

IF carries more load at the same pressure than a standard radial, while VF can carry even more or run at less pressure for the same load. Both options improve traction, ride comfort, and fuel efficiency during long harvest days.

How do I choose between drive wheel and steering wheel harvester tires?

Drive wheel tires need deep traction and high load capacity to move the machine and header through soil and slopes. Steering wheel tires focus on straight tracking, stability, and precise control on road and in the field. Mitas offers patterns tuned for both positions.

What pressure should I run on my harvester tires?

Set cold pressure using the manufacturer load and speed tables that account for cyclic field operations. Recheck pressure for transport runs and temperature changes, and confirm setup with Mitas Tires dealers, more useful information can be found in our downloads and technical information pages.

How do I prevent stubble damage and extend tire life?

Use stubble guards where possible, avoid sharp stalks when turning, and keep pressure correct to limit casing stress. Inspect after each day, remove debris, store clean and dry, and replace when cracks, bulges, or persistent vibration appear.

Harvesters

Find the right tire for your needs

Designed to support your daily work, our harvester tires are built for cyclic field operations on powerful combines. The wider footprint improves flotation and reduces soil compaction, preserving soil health and crop potential.

With the right Mitas setup, you gain stability, comfort, and efficient fuel use through long harvest days.

Why choose Mitas tires?

At Mitas, we stay genuinely close to the people who use our tires every day. We listen with an open mind, welcome new ideas, and value every piece of feedback, because building reliable, high-quality products starts with real human connection.

Make every hour work harder

On the farm, every day brings new tasks, new challenges, and no time to waste. That’s why the right balance of speed and efficiency isn’t just helpful — it’s essential.

Our agricultural tires are engineered with a clear purpose: supporting the real rhythm of your work. Reliable, durable, and made to perform across changing conditions, they help your tractor stay responsive and steady, so you can keep moving forward with confidence.

Tires for every purpose

As machines get heavier, faster, and more advanced, tires need to rise to the challenge. At Mitas, we’re fully tuned in to this evolution. Working closely with tractor and implement manufacturers helps us understand what farmers and contractors will need next, not just today.

Harvest confidence, not complications

When the pressure’s on and every grain matters, your combine needs tires it can count on. Mitas tires are built to carry heavy loads, stay stable on uneven ground, and keep you moving smoothly through the field — even when conditions get tough.

More grip, more comfort, more control.

10/10 performance, every time

Even the best machines can only go so far without the right tires to support them. The right match really does unlock their full potential.

That’s why our agricultural tires are purpose-built to help you get the most out of your equipment — delivering the traction, comfort and durability your work deserves.
