looking at filling the front tires on the CT 440 with foam. I am tired of plugging holes. Any one know anything about this.

Ya it is very expensive!!!
Off the top of my head your looking at about $300 per tire.
Go to your local big truck tire shop and they may be able to help you out.
One other note when it is time to change the tires expect a ton of either labor costs or time in your back yard with a sawzall.
The tires have to be cut off.

One other thing to consider, I was reading my manual the other day (really!) and there was mention in about 5 different places that foam filled tires void the warranty. Not sure if that meant the tire warranty, front axle warranty or entire tractor warranty but it sure was mentioned a lot.

Just order a couple gallons of that tire snot from Gemplers, that should plug the holes as you go.
