I replaced the front tires of my 8N at 60 years.
They were hard, cracked, and dry, but still held air, and were fully functional.

The manual for my tractor specs the tire pressure at about half of 240kpa on the tire sidewall, so about 15 psi.

If I wait a little while they will leak down to 15 psi, down from 30 psi that I filled them up too. I'll start hunting for 9.5-24 tubes. Forgot the front tire size. 6.00-15 I think.

I'll be happy to wait until these tires are old, before I replace them. This tractor spent it's whole life in the Arizona desert sun. 16 years old now.
