Trying to understand tire size and ratios

[bmaverick]

I asked Spalding which was Fredricks supplied about the cracks. Tubeless, Steel belted, Would they last. Steve told me then what to do and he was right which I had no doubt. I had to call back a few Yrs. later and he told me Gempler. Took a local tire Co. a couple Minutes. and seeing it done I could have done it. It was only 10.00$ a tire labor. gladly paid it though. https://gemplers.com/collections/ti...ntion-automotive-tractor?_=pf&pf_v_brand=None

Sounds like a good option for many.

My homestead/farm is under organic use. Thus, I can't use chemicals like that in the tires should there be any cut or gash out on the pasture. I have to use Sierra PG coolant too. Oil changes only in the garage. I learned all this from an Amish community in Guthrie-KY doing all organic farming. There's more to it too. (yes, Amish use - - - tractors! Rules on that too.)

If I could somehow work the old tube out and slip in a new tube, then run the compressor to fill up with air would buy me some time getting good tries vs. alright ones.

The front was the Fix a flat. Never had to add much of any pressure since so no leaking. Wasn't much 1/4 of a can per tire maybe. The valve itself wouldn't seal which I knew that. Had to put the cap on quick. Quilty on that one. But it ended up seating and then the rust on the wheel showed up. No problems and if I do I'll solid Foam fill them. which i knew then of that option. The Gempler reline was the big +
Big to Spalding to the day. Another reason Why the Refurb. YM2500 was bought from there....
