Not a recommended by DOT for road use method-- but has been used for farm/offroad/parade use work-- find friendly Harley dealer with near bald center 5:10x16 tire from dresser and use it and tube as inner liner for the really bad looking but right outside size 16 inch tire needed for implement or old vehicle not used on interstate system. Some 15 inch rear tires for couple motorcycles available at times, skinny 4:25x16 for the small/midsize also around and taken off tire with good case, worn center tread is price of can beer- disposal cost for small tires about same as larger tire for tire dealers. Slime and foam padding in center of rim to take up some space works good enough for most utility work, extra slime helps in some scrap yard work if you don't want the $100.00 foam filling. 7:00x16 old Jeep tire can use the 5x16 or newer 5:10, 5:25x16 as inner liner- might need to sand off the nearer outside edge good tread, might just squeeze in with minimal problem. some ag tire dealer will have specific liner kits that will do same basic thing for extra money- might be about only option for bigger rear tractor tires but the smaller front wheels with 15, 16 inch tires can be quick , cheap fix if you have access to the used motorcycle tires. Ford N 19 inch fronts with nasty side wall cuts- many motorcycles used a skinny 19 inch front wheel/tire that tucks in easy enough. Brother 'borrowed' one of my salvage shelf motorcycle tires for quick repair of neighbors tractor tire and they were still being used about 3 years later, 3 or 4 repair jobs using my emergency use takeoffs, patched tubes that were in old shed. Either that or check Miller Tire for new tire - cost may be OK for you but most users of YTMAG seem to be 'thrifty' (cheap, tightwad, miser, poor, closed purse, squeeze a nickel till it screams :>).
