I have a D180 Wheelhorse, which after nearly forty years needs new rear tires.  I have enquired locally (Ontario, Canada) but so far, no luck.

 

The size is 27 x 9.50 - 15.    These are lawn tires.  

 

Would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you all for such quick and productive replies.  I shall have to gather together my pennies etc, and get the "Old Girl" Re-shod.

 

Thanks to all again.

Tony you are in the same boat I am in. Many people have switched to this size 27x10.5-15. It is more common and you can get skid steer tires.

Tony, Did you know that your D-180 cane with 26x12x12 on the rear originally? I would go back to the 12" wheels and tires. You can buy everything you need to go back original for what a pair or 15's are going to cost you. Just my opinion. Good Luck!

My 1975 D-180 came with 640-15's on it ... And while 15's are getting hard to find, when I recently had to replace the originals with an alternate size,  I found them to be a fair amount cheaper than expected, under $100 each, and seems the big fat turf - say in the 12 inchers - tires get over $100 pretty quickly.

the D series came with either or 26x12x12 or the 27x9.50x15. i am not sure which was standard and which was optional. my 18 auto has 15 and the D200 has the 12's with the turning brakes.

Thanks to you all.   I will probably go with the 27/8.50 as they are under a $100.  Pretty cheap really.  As am I.

 

Thanks again,

I use a dealer off of e-bay by the name of K-Morrow. Never had a problem with his stuff.
