This is probably a stupid question, but do I have to worry about my tires getting a flat working with some thorn apple trees that I have cut down. I have them around a burn pit and want to push them in and then grade the area for lawn/home grown Christmas trees/berry bushes. I have had numerous flats on my old cheap tow behind 10 cu.ft. wagon, so much so that I spent $100 for solid tires for the $100 wagon.

The tires are 17.5L-24 R4's on the rear and 10-16.5 R4's on the front (on a Massey 1635).

I would worry about them unless the trees are very young and very short thorns. Even then I suspect they would eventually work through.
