I just had the tires changed on my H. they charged $30 to do it at his shop and it may be money well spent. It isn"t hard to do if you have the bead breakers, and the right tire tools, but you have to be careful putting the tube back in so you don"t get it pinched and that will cause a leak. The cost of buying the tools and possibly wrecking the new tube are something to consider if you have never changed a tire by hand. I jack mine up on the forward part of the drawbar so the jack is inline up to the axle. We changed the tires right on the tractor without pulling the rim off. If you have water in the tires it will have to come out first and I am not sure how to do that without the special valve tools and making a big brown spot in the yard from dead grass. Getting the tire off you have to get the bead broken and push one side of the tire into the rim offset and then start prying the tire off on the opposite side. When you get that off pull out the tube and then get the other side into the offset and start prying that off. They pretty much go back on the same way, but in reverse. Just be sure to pay attention the which side the valve stem is on and be careful with the tube and prying the tire back on so the tools don"t go in too far and rip the tube. Setting the bead don"t put in more than 35lbs in the tire or follow the pressure lable on the tire, then let the air back out to 15-20lbs or so before moving the tractor. If you have water in the tires, I would let the pros do it. that calcium can rust out a rim in short order if even a little bit gets on the rim. and the brown spot in the yard may last a couple years. If the rim is rusty inside and especially around the valve stem hole, that can be a problem in itself and may require a new rim or a repair to the rim. One other tool that is required will be a good back and help to do the job.
