I finally decided to get the tires filled with rubber. After cutting more brush a couple weeks ago, I found a nice 1/2" diameter thorn branch in my tire. I didn't completely deflate as I have the tire sealer in it, but I see the sealant bubbling out everyday.

I took the tires in today to get them filled and should have them back on the tractor this weekend. $1/pound and the tire shop is estimating it will take around 75 pounds for each tire. On a side note, they were impressed with the tires I had. They asked me what kind of tractor I had because they said it was unusual to see such thick ply tires in the U.S.
