I came across issues of tyre wear on 992G/K machines and in every case it was traced to the machine having been bought with No-Spin (Detroit Locker) differentials. A rebuild to conventional differentials and the problem went away.I did have a couple of customers tell me of tire wear on the Cat machines but I don't have any fact to back up those statements.
Interesting, I would have thought that having the locking diff's would have reduced the wear on tires as all wheels would be doing the work and reducing spinning. Have to think of that one a bit.I came across issues of tyre wear on 992G/K machines and in every case it was traced to the machine having been bought with No-Spin (Detroit Locker) differentials.

Think turning at almost full articulation angle in reverse Ken. The wheels on the side you're turning towards will literally hop.Interesting, I would have thought that having the locking diff's would have reduced the wear on tires as all wheels would be doing the work and reducing spinning.
