Nokian Tyres has added three new sizes to its Soil King VF tire range. Providing high performance for demanding agricultural tasks, the new sizes (VF650/65R42, VF540/65R30 and VF600/60R30) are common in mid-horsepower tractors in the 200–275 hp range.

The Soil King VF series with Flexforce VF technology combines flexibility and strength. This tire technology creates XXL ground contact and minimizes energy loss, which reduces fuel consumption and improves overall efficiency.

Large ground contact area and lower surface pressure also reduce soil compaction significantly, resulting in less soil and crop damage and more yield.

Tests conducted by the Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft (DLG) in 2022 in Germany have validated the performance of Nokian Tyres VF tires in both field work and transport.

The tire has also undergone extensive field testing. In their reports, the test users highlighted soil friendliness, stability and road performance.

The current Soil King VF range includes eleven common sizes for HHP tractors, with plans for further expansion in the future.

The Soil King VF product family now includes: VF650/65R42, VF540/65R30, VF600/60R30, VF710/70R42, VF650/85R38, VF600/70R30, VF600/70R28, VF710/75R42, VF600/70R34, VF650/65R34, and F650/60R34.

The new sizes are available for immediate delivery.
