Thanks for the picture!
I stumbled onto the link I posted while searching the web for a front tire for my Bolens tractor.
It has SCHENUIT TIRES on the front.
Anyone here ever hear of this brand of tire?

Simplicity and Allis-Chalmers L&G tractors of that same timeframe used 4.00/4.80x8 Schenuit tires on the front. Here's a picture of them:

That company is long out of business, as far as I can tell...

There's a small set of black footplates or "stirrups" barely visible just behind the front wheels. It doesn't have full-length running boards. They're hard to see in this picture...
