You want some great front tires, on rims for our old Yanmar 4wd just go to a new Yanmar dealer and tell them you want a set off of (for) a new 324 tractor, (same frame, engine, front axle, 4 bolt pattern spindle, etc.). Same 18hp PTO power as my 187d. Got a pair of 6 ply that do not squat with a load in the bucket. Less than $200 on new rims.

That's a pretty sweet deal for wheels and tires!!! Do you have any pictures of your set on your tractor?

Truck tires seem to be a common replacement for "turfs".
A side benefit is that chain sets are readily available in those sizes - assuming you have clearance for them.
Even if you aren't in the snow belt, chains on turfs (or truck tires) can be used for field work - better than Ags or R4s in SOME instances.

A local sports field contractor gives racing slicks a second life - they have NO tread, I don't know if he also does putting greens, but they are the ultimate "NO PRINT" tire.

Never thought about old race slicks as a turf tire, but that isn't a half bad idea. Would be cool to see someone with a set of those on their tractor!

Until you cactually needed traction, like up a slight incline with wet grass!

This is the way I'm looking at maybe needing some Traction 1/4mile? Seen this on TBN. before. It has the cool factor...

Love to see that guy do donuts on dry payment or dirt...
Bet that would wipe the smile off his face.

Was trying to get a guess of the speed. He had better pucker up or get awful heavy in the britches!! Just sayin.............
