: Mow Man,

: The multi-rib implement tire would be the easiest tire to acquire. I think I have a 4.00X15 or 5.00X15 on the light side of my hay baler. These tires are well rounded and would tear up sod less than the tri-ribbed tires.

: These tires may be more prone to punctures, however. I have used a tire sealer with great success in the last few years. I can get it at the local farm supply in quart or gallon bottles. I pump in about a pint and can mow around thorn trees without flats. Every time I have a flat on farm equipment, I pump in some sealer and forget it.

You will forget it untill you have to take the tire off one day and deal with the mess. I had a front tractor tire that had that mess in it. It took a while to clean it up and it caused the rim to rust.
