you are right- if the tread has started separating from the casing, tire probably won't last very long. do you need 1 tire or 2? check local tractor parts yards. there should be some supply of decent usable 18.4x30 tires already mounted. save mounting charges. if you aren't doing tillage, you don't need brand new tires. tread pattern needs to be going the correct way, or you will have to change it anyway. good idea to add air with the valve stem on top- if the tire is loaded (water + ?). that keeps the calcium out of the valve core and pressure gauge = less corrosion= longer life. another point- you don't want one side loaded and the other side not- depending on what you find used. tractor won't pull right unless you add wheel weights to the unloaded side so weight is similar on each side. i like firestones. a little cheaper alternative would be BKTs. if you are buying new.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
