Yes they are turf tires, if you look at the ones that google brings up they are usually 23x8.5-12 or 24x9.5-12. the firestones are discontinued. Since the tractor is 4wd tire size is important.

Uhmm. I am not a tire expert, so I would go to a tire shop that does ag work and see what they say. Rice Tire in Frederick has some knowledgeable ag tire people, but that may be a little far for you.
I know that if you get into the tire specs you can get the circumference, which combined with what can fit in your rims is the important number in 4wd applications. I believe most fronts lead by 3-5%.

Talked to Rice Tires, they recommended 24x9.5-12 Kenda tires. they are 9 inches wide, so slightly wider than current, but are the same diameter. ordered new wheels, got one today offset is less so should give me more clearance. offset on current rim is 4" new rim 3 1/2".
