Marc, There has been discussions on this topic in numbers just a little less than the one on....Which is the best oil? Having had a loader tractor in my position for over 20 yrs. My vote and endorsement goes to Airplane tires. Kept playing around with implement tires for just short of 10 yrs going through numerious sets of tires. Then bought my first set of 3/4 worn out airplane tires. Used my factory rims with tubes. These 2 tires lasted......10 yrs !!!! I had 2 flats, 1 on each tire, during that time!!! This tractor is not a small tractor, it is a 76 966 with a 2350 IH loader. The only other problem was the rims were a little to flimsy with such a heavier tire. My 2nd and current set were half treads, I bought new after-market HD rims. Again with tubes /w NO Slime. Im on my 3rd yr on them and they are still great. Our Ranch has a JD 4230 also, that we put Airplanes on, with slime in them. They work very well but the tire carcuss has numerious little seeps in the side walls. So every 3 months or so one needs to air them up a little, not much of a problem but it seems to need just a little every time I dig gravel out of our Calachie pit. Even though this set is not as good as my first 2 sets they are head and shoulders above anything else. My set has the brake lip on the side of the tread face it adds to floatation. In function, It throws water away from the brake assembly on the nose wheel assembly. Call Gensco @ Houston Texas. You can get their # out of your current "Fastline" magazine. Hope this helps. Later, John A.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
