My non-Yanmar tractor has had that Trac-Chief tire for going on 17 years, and it has taken a lot of grief over the years.

All the best,

Peter

These are Org. Bridgestone that I relined and new tubes. A new Nylon tire insert with new tubes. Covers the Sidewalls also. I'll never wear them out! Done it in 2016. From Gempler Super cheap!! Org front also. The lugs are still huge. Just put a couple tach Hrs on it,;) Chk. with Fredricks as many new tires they use?

I would love to do Ag rear but since I will also use it to mow my lawn with a finish mower, that will be a no go

If tractor data dot com is correct you likely have 16 inch rims in the rear and 12 inch rims in the front (rim diameter).
For lawn and yard purposes there is no "need" for a so called tractor tire, you can find numerous car/pickup tires that would fit and fill the need. As long as the OD's or loaded radius is correct your tractor will not have any idea what type of tire you have shod it with. This site has many useful tire charts and calculators.

I'd say your tractor is looking good in the clutch housing area. About as expected. I don't see any damage, just a need for some new clutch parts. That's par for an old tractor that has been sitting. Is the mechanic game to try to start it i[?

Those front tires ln your photo look to be the original front turf tires. They were very quality, and the smooth tread protects the drivetrain when you are moving with 4wd engaged. In fact those are the same tires we had on our YM165d to do the dirtwork building two houses and a barn. Give them a try.

WHen new, the Yanmar YM165d came standard with ag tread. The turf tire option was about a thousand dollar adder. You can't swap between turf and ag tires withot also swapping the wheels.

BTW, generally it's the front tires that tear up a lawn. Those you have are the best for lawns.

I later changed to diamond pattern chains for a better ride. But even the simple ones worked.
