[AT] tread design

[Louis]

John, 

If you look at this link, this is the one Ralph posted about a sale up
in Canada: http://www.mackauctioncompany.com/10-oct2.html

If you scroll down, you will see a big Massey with the diamond tread
front tires.

Got to thinking about tire tread design on my last post about sidehill
combines. Back in the 70's and maybe 80's I remember seeing
advertisements for Ford tractors with diamond style tread tires. Can't
remember if they were on the front and back or just the front. I never
saw another brand use that style of tread. These were big tractors--100+
hp. What was the reasoning for using that style of tire?
