Tires Tire Woes

[Kays Supply]

I have a tire store close that handles construction and farm tires. These are large skid steer tires. There were some on Ebay a couple of days ago. Hey Wheel made the rims for me. I later had them make front rims and put industrials on the front.

Here's an update guys. I finally was able to get the tire off and down to my local tire store. They deal in "street" tires as well as truck and ag tires. He took one look and pronounced it unfixable. There is a good sized rip about halfway down the sidewall that extends for probably 24-30 inches. (about 2 -3 inches away from the rim)

So, it looks like I'm going to have to buy the two that Tucker has for sale on Ebay. I can't find another one in the whole country.

Before I press the "Buy" button and commit to almost $600, I'll plea one more time to see if any of you all know of any others available.

Update to the update.

Believe it or not, I actually found a local dealer who has two! They are $262 a piece, so I am a very happy camper

Going to get it mounted tomorrow.

You are very fortunate indeed. My YM3110D takes 12.4 -26 rear tires. And they are starting to look pretty bad. I can't find these anywhere. If anyone knows of a set, please let me know. I keep checking eBay, no luck.

Where are you located VicWalk? I can give you the number of the guy here in VA who had mine. They said: "if it rolls, we can get it"

Too bad, I have a set of 11.2 X 24 rice tires sitting in my basement. They are free! Anyone need them? PM me.

Fenneran, thanks for the reply. I am in Arizona but I would be willing to talk to anyone about the possibilities of finding a set of tires for my tractor. You can post here or PM me if you wish. Thanks, VW

Vicwalk,
According to the YM3110D parts book, another tire/wheel combination that was used is 12.4/11-28. My 3110D has this size wheel and tire. This tire size seems to be more readily available. Perhaps, you could contact some of the Yanmar dealers to see if they have a parts tractor or can get that size rim and tire for you.
