AHS 1,550 #1 Posted August 12, 2020 So my WH tractor had original wheel horse tires on it... 1 of em still has air in it used on my 73! I figured I would take a picture of the 1 that is heavily cracked and dry rotted... as it going to the pile.. time for some new AG weighted tires!! 😀👍 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stepney 2,354 #3 Posted August 12, 2020 Wish we could still get those front balloon tires with the sawtooth tread.. really like them. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 72,993 #4 Posted August 12, 2020 Cool stuff. We have a front and a rear tire here that will eventually be repainted and a wall hanging. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8ntruck 7,877 #5 Posted August 13, 2020 You could do as Anthony Hopkins character did in The World's Fastest Indian when he was prepping the motorcycle for a run at Bonnieville - used black shoe polish to fill the cracks in so he could get through tech inspection. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AHS 1,550 #7 Posted August 13, 2020 The wheel horse ones are about 4 lbs heavier than the regular tire, I was gonna tube it and run it for the next 25 years!! There come she’s a fine line between tubing and too cracked and dry rotted... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
