I am not being very successful at finding dealers for the versatech. Wondering if I need some search tips. What is a good way to shop and/or get a look at these things.

I've never searched around for dealers, I always see them at equipment auctions.....try googling "equipment auctions" in your area, or also google "implement dealers".....most larger implement dealers usually carry versatech or some equivalent.

I sure hope this raised on a deere fella keeps his shiny new tractor in a barn. As industrious as he sounds, I bet if a fella just left all the materials for a new barn layin around, he would have it up in no time and filled with a cornacupia of fancy implements.

Spoke with Phil at Rim Guard. He's one of the owners and a great guy with loads of valuable info. He refered me to American Tire & Services in Bardstown KY at 502 348 3018. Before calling, make sure you know your tire size and if they are radial or bias ply. If radial, you will only need to fill them 75% or to 2 o'clock position. If you fill a radial tire up 100% you have essentially created a bias ply tire and would be like driving on cement wheels.
If bias ply, 100% fill is necessary.
Pretty sure I read that you know not to mix calcium fill with any of the "new" products due to gelling, but just in case...DON'T!
