Tire Price

My tractor has a rear flat. It may be possible to get a tube installed but there's a lot of dry rot so maybe not. 11.2x24 R1. What do these go for?

Randy,
It's been too many years since I replaced any tires, but before going to a tractor dealer however, I would stop at a trucking service center first, for a competitive price. I went that routine, and got a better price for my front 4WD tires, versus a couple of tractor dealers.

Thanks mm62...the last time I needed a tractor tire it was a front tire and I got it from a local auto repair shop. I think it was $75 for a new one plus mounting and fluid. I don't think there are any trucking service centers anywhere nearby.

randy,
being in sw va. how close are you to the tn line?
blevins tire deals in tractor tires/tubes. (located in bristol and webber city) they have gotten me tires and tubes before.
there is a large truck, goodyear/ firestone dealer. located at intersection of interstates 26 and 81. in the industrial park.

IF you're doing your own tire work and can wait to order ship Nebraska Tire has some blem tires at a fair deal and the 11.2x24 is a tire that's pretty popular and doesn't seem to be real spendy. Look at their web site and see what ya think. bjr
