I bought my 4x4 (1056 hrs.) 1988 Ford 1920 FEL ($9500) within 140 miles of the OP's location, thus I bought in the exact same "region".Nice tractor. Regional pricing will vary, but I think that if you have a bit of time to wait, you'll see the upper end of pricing discussed here.

Rgds, D.
I did buy R-1 tires, and I bought new rear rims, as they had been eaten away by Calcium Chloride. I paid $565 for the tires, and $240 for the rims, plus $60 for mounting, and $70 for tubes. That works out to $935 total for the rears. I would estimate the total for front rims/tires/mounting at about $460.
The big if here though is IF a buyer really needs R-1 tires. I would have paid $12,000 for that 218 hour tractor with the turf tires, and I would have used it with the turf tires.
I have turf tires on my Ford 3400 TLB, and they work just fine for me. They don't tear up my property!
Many potential Ford 1920 buyers are NOT farmers, and do not need or want R-1's.
I do have a set of R-1 used 14.9 x 24 tires with tubes, for sale, in good condition, if anyone is interested.
