In the difficult ag economy, any advantage you can acquire—no matter how small—can be the difference between making a profit and taking a loss. Even modest improvements to a large operation such as a farm can add up, resulting in an impactful change (and more dollars) at the end of the season. Helping farmers combat decreasing farm profits are tires like the Alliance 363 IF/VF.

On a trip through the Midwest this past summer, we were fortunate to meet with a few of the people working with our Alliance 363 IF tire in the field and record their thoughts on what makes the Alliance 363 an excellent tire. The people we spoke with ranged from an Alliance Sales Manager and Field Engineer to a pair of corn and soybean farmers from Iowa to a custom applicator from Minnesota—and the praise this group gave the Alliance 363 IF is nearly as diverse as the group itself.

With 42 years of experience working for Central Farm Service (CFS) in Kenyon, Minnesota, it’s safe to say that custom applicator Steve Aldrich has driven a lot of different machines and ridden on a lot of different tires over the years. Because of this, we were very excited when we learned he was willing to share the great experience he’s had with our Alliance AgriFlex 363 IF tires on video.

Farmers today face challenges that previous generations couldn't have imagined: stress on the soil from bigger and more powerful equipment, running machinery on the road at higher speeds, and the ever-increasing need to produce more — even in less-than-ideal conditions. Alliance Tire Group is hard at work designing tires to help farmers and custom applicators overcome the challenges they face on a daily basis.
