Going to purchase 'something' tomorrow. So any last minute thoughts, suggestions, issues we haven't considered?

For some reason I am still not quite decided....and that is highly unusual for me.

When I am undecided either I have not recognized the correct / most important characteristic(s) or I am over thinking something that likely isnt enough of a problem to have made a difference in the criteria. Either selection you have shared is better than current (worn tire), so if current doesn’t not require you to buy a machine with different capabilities, then new tires are icing on the cake IMO. Good luck. Enjoy that new tire smell.

Sorry....I should have followed up on that.

Went with these, should be here next Wednesday.

Though I'd have preferred a tubeless tire, I believe this tread depth and pattern will work for me.

Once mounted and installed on the tractor, I will report back.

Thanks to all for your suggestions and insight. (y)

Tires showed up today. I wanted to remove the old tires from the rims myself....so I could inspect and clean the inside of the rims (if needed) because you know the tire store isn't going to do that.

Didn't think it would be that hard to do....since the tires aren't really that large 11.2 x 24. I was wrong there. :(

Anyway....after struggling for a couple of hours, I finally got them off. Cleaned up the rims a bit and have everything on the trailer ready to go to the tire store tomorrow. Then back to the Ranch, get them mounted on the tractor and move on to the next project.
