Hi,
my NH 461 Haybine calls for a 5:90 15 inch implement tire. I go to Tractor supply and they have 4.00 & 5.00 15" implement tires. What does the 5:90 refer to, and what would I substitute/why?

Thanks for your help.

Paul: Not having bought any implement tires for 15 years I was a bit unsure as to what to tell you in my previous post. You have some good answers here. Stick with the mainline suppliers of implement tires though. I have seen many many times people going out and buying used car tires, thinking they will be paying prices comparable to new car tires for new implement tires. The implement tire not being a high speed tire does give considerable savings, and in fact is a much better tire for the use at hand.

Paul,
Check-out the following link:

Link

Goodyear lists a 4 ply 5.90x15 implement tire.

They'll probably run about $45-$50.00 each.

Paul, I think we have the 5.90x15 tires you are looking for in either the Firestone or Goodyear brand. Check with your local TIRE dealers. They can get them. oleblu

Sounds like an old volkswagen bug tire might fit. Seems like they were 5.60x15.

Paul,
I just bought a 5.70-15 x 6 ply tire at my local goodyear dealer. Cost $59.00. I went for a 6.00-15 and they didn't show one in the computer. In implement tire sizes the first number is the approximate width of the tire and the second numer is the diameter of the rim. I would go smaller on a haybine so you don't have to worry about it rubbing. But that's just my opinion. Also make sure that the tire is at least a 6 ply. Some "cheap" tires may be less and could be a problem on a heavier implement.

If your TSC store is like ours, it isn't worth what flies out the back of a manure spreader. You need to go to a real tire supplier and tell them that you need a 5.90-15 ribbed implement tire. A couple of manufacturers still make them. I know American Farmer is one brand.

Sounds like your TSC store and my Big R have a lot in common! :-)

Paul: As I recall you don't have a whole lot of extra space in there. I would think a 6.00 x 15 should work. If I remember correctly that is what I put on mine 35 years ago. Problem is if you get those too far off the platform will cut higher on one side. 5.90 should be just what it says .10 less than 6.00
