Re: square inchs of footprint of sprayer tires
I think it is about 396 sq in. The calculation involves several variables,including tire pressure and load weight. You can go to some of the tire web sites such as Michelin, Firestone and Titan and/or search online for the phrase "gross flat plate" which seems to be the technical term for what we call contact print or footpring.
