Super Singles on Forestry Bucket?

[Kyle Hohler]

Has anyone ever run super singles on the rear of a forestry bucket truck? I’m trying to find better floatation options for my bucket truck, I’m tired of throwing mats on decently solid yard surfaces.

Any thoughts and opinions also appreciated, just doing some research at this point.

Seems to me you would actually loose flotation compared to duals...you also make no mention of replacing your standard front tires with floatations.

I would definitely replace the front with likely a 315/80 R22.5 from the original rims and tires (not sure on the with of those exactly without looking). I should have mentioned that in the original post. That would significantly improve the front but I’m looking for options to improve the rears too and not sure to go with a wider tire or a super single, have little to no knowledge in the tire area....

This thread got me to thinking about something similar to tracks and it turns out that they make them for trucks including dually wheels. http://www.righttracksystemsinc.com/truck-trailer/

Not sure how they'll do in grass, but they got around good in a lot of mud in their videos on that website.
