I run R3 Turf Tires on my L3430. back when I was in the Landscaping business we had L series Kubotas with R1 and R3s. Both performed about the same in snow. Where turf fall on their face is in mud- they load up and become slicks essentially.

Our Case 580K had R4s- good overall, but it was so much heavier than the Kubotas that its not apples to apples. I got them all stuck at one time or the other.

If doing it over (will likely have to as getting sidewall cracking on rears), I would stay with Turfs. I use a front mounted blower so do not need a ton of winter traction.
