Front tire was flat this morning. Size is 10-16.5 (is like a skid steer tire) Took it to a few tire repair places and they all said they don't repair these type of tires. Finally found someone to put a tube in it. Anybody else have trouble getting tires patched? I expect this will be a frequent task for me.

I have had a couple flats on the front tractor tires (tubeless type). Usually from running over a nail. I have had success plugging the holes with a plug gun. Have also had success using fix a flat inflator and sealer.

What about getting foam filled if this will be a frequent issue? Don't know if that's a possibility for the rears, but for the skid steer sized fronts it probably is an option.

I take mine to a place that repairs tractor tires, we have two within twenty miles.
