We Supply Tractor Tyres in Wellington

Made For Hard Work

When it comes to tyres for tractors and farm equipment, we're outstanding in the field. At Ben's Tyres, our technicians have decades of experience working with farmers and landowners in Wellington and around the Great Western Plains region.


We’ll provide quality advice on choosing and caring for your tractor tyres. We can help you with wheel alignments and will watch for wear on ball joints and bearings. When you notice unusual wear on the lugs and shoulders, first look at tyre pressure. Underinflation may lead to overheating. Overinflation causes wear on the lugs.


Remember the load limitations your vehicle can support. Transporting loads over capacity will put a strain on the casing.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I choose the right tractor tyres for my property?

    Choosing the right tyres depends on the tractor’s workload, soil type and traction needs. R1 agricultural tyres suit general farming and offer a strong grip in soft soil. R1W and R2 tyres provide deeper tread for wetter or heavier conditions, while R4 industrial tyres suit mixed use on harder ground. Considering load capacity, tread depth and terrain helps ensure safe performance and better fuel efficiency.

  • What causes tractor tyres to slip or lose traction?

    Slip can occur when tread depth is worn, tyre pressure is incorrect or soil conditions are wet or loose. Heavy implements or improper ballast can also reduce traction. Monitoring tyre pressure, adjusting ballast and choosing the right tread pattern for conditions can significantly improve grip and reduce unnecessary fuel use.

  • How can I tell when tractor tyres need replacing?

    Signs include worn or shallow tread, visible cracks, exposed cords, consistent pressure loss or poor traction when working. If the tractor struggles under load or feels unstable on slopes, tyres may have reached the end of their safe working life. Regular inspections help catch damage early and prevent downtime during busy seasons.

Signs Your Tyres Need Replacing or Replacing

The larger the tyre, the more dangerous it is when it blows out. Here are some clues that yours might be about to fail:


  • An irregular wear pattern shortens working life, and it could also be a clue that your suspension is worn out.
  • Vibrations while driving indicate that tyres are out of alignment or balance.
  • Bulges on tyres indicate a high risk of blowout.
  • A missing valve cap might seem like a minor matter until the dirt and debris build-up causes a tyre to deflate.
