I used cribbing on tractors or any large equipment. Bottle jacks work fine in conjunction (I sometimes use floor jacks). It's just safer this way. No point in risking injury over a tire.
Tires with ballast are extremely heavy. I have 2 tractors, if I get the tire off I can use the other one to get a tire on a trailer. Without the ability to get the tire on a trailer I'd take the whole tractor.
I have both tires off this small tractor. I lift the tractor while sliding cribbing underneath. I let the tractor down on the cribbing before starting any work.
