Description
When your planter's gauge wheels start showing their age—cracking, chunking, or just not holding proper depth control—this 4-1/2 x 16 inch replacement tire gets your planting operation back on track. Consistent seed depth is what separates good stands from great ones, and worn gauge wheel tires that can't maintain proper ground contact will show up in uneven emergence and spotty stands that hurt your bottom line.
What You're Getting
- Quality AgSmart construction that handles the demands of modern planting operations
- Direct replacement design that fits without modifications or adapters
- Proper tread design for consistent ground contact and accurate depth sensing
- Durable rubber compound that maintains its shape through thousands of acres
- Standard size that's compatible with both John Deere and Case IH applications
Built for Real Farm Work
This tire fits the workhorses of corn and soybean planting—John Deere MaxEmerge XP, MaxEmerge Plus, and Pro XP planters, along with Case IH 1200 series planters. Whether you're planting into heavy residue, working varying soil conditions, or pushing through long days to get your crop in the ground, this tire provides the consistent performance your planting operation demands.
Made to Last
Planting season doesn't give you time for tire failures or inconsistent depth control. This gauge wheel tire is built with quality rubber that resists cracking from UV exposure and maintains its flexibility through temperature swings. The construction is designed to handle the vibration and impacts that come with modern planting speeds while keeping its shape for accurate depth control.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward—remove the old tire and mount the new one using your existing rim and hardware. While you've got the gauge wheels off, it's a good time to check bearing condition and grease fittings. Make sure your gauge wheel arms are properly adjusted for your planting conditions before heading to the field.
