Hello, I noticed a drywall screw stuck in the thread pattern on the rear industrial tire of the 2816. I pulled it out and sure enough its leaking. What have most used to seal the tire...plugs? or some of the spray patch?

If tubeless I'd use a plug.

If tube, pull it and glue patch.

I'd have to find out, but I believe its tubless. I have no ballast in them, though I was going to put some in it..it needs it. I guess a plug it is, ..its right in the thread pattern...a good 1.25 to 1.5 inches deep. Why did you ask about the ballast?

I was concerned about any possible pets you had. If you had regular antifreeze - water mix ballast - it would kill them. Also, if this were the case, suggesting that you position your tractor so the valve stem would be at 12 o'clock. Best wishes.

Ahh, No pets at the moment. Good thought though. I hope the plug holds....
