R2 tires are a specialty tire for rice and sugar cane. They look similar to the R1 tire but you will see a difference. What you are describing sounds like a front rib tire for a 2wd tractor.R2 is front wheel, smooth ribbed tire, ribs made for holding onto dirt when plowing, when making turns. Ford 8 series tractors had a single rib, 100 and 1000 series had 3 rib. JD I had in a 9" width had 4 and so on.
