Triples are actually not very good in mud. They tend to plug up in between and act like a big slick. The reason for the triples is because these 500 hp tractors now have about 100 lbs of weight per horsepower and it actually takes that much tire on the ground to capture all the power of the engine itself. With just duals you could end up with a tremendous amount of wheelspin pulling a 50 foot field cultivator with 500 hp. Awesome looking beast aren't they! I would love to drive that beast.
