To optimise the performance of CargoXBib High Flotation tyres, you need to use them at the lowest possible pressure at all times.
Gordon Brookes, Customer Engineering Support Manager, Michelin
We couldn't believe how well the AxioBibs performed – they didn't need repairing once in the whole 4,100 hours we used them.
David Silvester, Head Tractor Driver, Moundsmere Farming Company
Like all tyres in the AxioBib range, this new tyre benefits from operating at a low pressure and with a 16 per cent larger footprint than an equivalent tyre made using conventional technology.
Mike Lawton, Michelin’s Commercial Director of Agriculture
A key principle of the Exelagri network is a strong emphasis on aftersales support. We knew Nigel was fitting Stabil’X tyres and saw the opportunity to improve traction by switching to BibSteels - we’re delighted with the results.
Simon Veysey, Commercial Manager, North Devon Tyres
The MCC designation is designed to give farmers, contractors and tractor dealerships the confidence that they have chosen a service provider with proven skills and experience in this specialist sector.

Aberdeenshire farm trial demonstrates benefits of central tyre inflation systems with high flotation tyres

Stoke-on-Trent, December 19, 2016Michelin has conducted field trials at Maxwell Farms, near Turriff in Aberdeenshire, to demonstrate the benefits of using a Central Tyre Inflation System with its Ultraflex technology tractor and trailer tyres. The trials compared the differences between a Fendt 939 tractor and the latest generation Stewart Trailers tri-axle tipper when operating at conventional pressures – compared with the ultra-low pressures possible for field operation with Michelin’s AxioBib and CargoXBib High Flotation tyres. When optimised for field operation, these tyres enable

DEMO PROVES FUEL AND MONEY SAVING BENEFITS OF MICHELIN’S ULTRAFLEX TECHNOLOGY TYRES

Stoke-on-Trent – February 9, 2015Michelin’s innovative Ultraflex Technology tyres can save farmers hundreds of pounds in fuel every time they drill a field, a new trial has demonstrated. Michelin’s XeoBib tyres were fitted to a Massey Ferguson 6616 tractor operating with a Kuhn power harrow drill combination and driven over a 100 hectare field. With the front tyre pressures set at 20 psi and the rear pressure set to 30 psi, it cost £978.70 in fuel to drill the field, leaving an average rut depth of 133mm. These pressures simulated the tyre pressures required for a conventional

FIVE YEARS ON THE JOB FOR LONG-LASTING MICHELIN TRAILER TYRES

Stoke-on-Trent – January 30, 2015A Dorset-based agricultural contractor has replaced its Michelin CargoXBib tyres like-for-like after achieving exceptional wear from the fitments over a five year period. Bernard Cox Ltd, which undertakes a number of arable and grassland contracts for customers in the Dorchester area, specified the CargoXBib 560/60 R 22.5s as original equipment on a fleet of new trailers after the company had heard good things about the product. The tyres are only now being replaced as the tread has worn sufficiently due to the intensive work they have undertaken.

MICHELIN XEOBIB TYRES PLOUGH ON AFTER 2,500 HOURS OF WORK

Stoke-on-Trent – December 15, 2014A set of Michelin XeoBib tractor tyres has clocked up more than 2,500 hours of demanding slurry work and the tyres still have two-thirds of their tread remaining. Paul Nixon, who runs Selkirk-based contracting company R&S Nixon & Co, fitted the tyres to his Massey Ferguson less than two years ago, and says the investment has more than paid off. Nixon says: “We’ve been delighted with how the tyres are wearing. We made the switch from using budget tyres and the difference in two years has been phenomenal. “Any initial saving you make by fitting
