MX5200 front tire came off rim..can it be re-mounted?

[davidon]

I ran the tractor and started to noticed the wheels were not responding to steering wheel turns properly so I looked down and noticed the tire had come off the wheel. When I examined the tire, where the inner sidewall sits on the rim, does have some small tears in a few places. Just wondering if this is re-usable or does the tire have to be perfect?

Some pictures would help determine, but I'd at least try and seat it back on the rim even if it looked horrible.

Doesn't have to be perfect, worst case you might have to put a tube in it...

Good advice so far.

Especially when doing heavy loader work in 4WD, check tire pressures periodically.

Lot of torque on the tires.

I been there.....

I'm afraid you'll have to tell the wife you need to buy a new tractor. Say the internet said so.
