    Replacement tires for NH 56 Hay Rake

    I didn't want to spend too much on replacements. Really wanted used. The wheels are 15" and someone before me had but some old radial car/truck tires on it. They are really too wide. I had heard you can use old volkswagon tires but I haven't run across any of those. I am going to call the ag...
