Tires Need new front tires 1985 yanmar ym2000d

Don't know where you're at.....but....any local tire company can get you tires. I put new Carlisle tires on my 186D recently. Bought them at a local Tire Factory outlet. I recommend you price shop.....just like for a truck/car.....different stores sell same tires for different prices. good luck.

Thanks for all the tips... got a pair yesterday at a local tire shop. Did a lot of price shopping, lots to find on the web, but by the time shipping was factored in, the local shops were about the same if not a little cheaper. Then to find out the rims were pretty rusted internally, so the shop spent about 3 hours with a wire wheel, removing the rust at no cost to me. So i am back on the dirt... now to save my nickels to replace the rears because they are just as sun cracked as the front were.

Again thanks for all the tips, and I found out a lot about Yanmar history

I wouldn't worry too much about sun cracking. at 5-6mph they can last a looong time, as long as they hold air, (especially with tubes).

Yep i would not worry about crack, this is not on your family truck screaming down the highway at 80 mph its usually on the dirt going slow. and even if on the road going 10 mph unles you have a loader full of dirt as high as it will go i dont think you will notice a blow out other than the factor of the noise and you will be riding leaned over.
