Does anyone know of a chemical that can be applied to a rubber tire to harden like a sun baked old tire?

If it's a thorn problem just put in some of the goo ( sealer ) that the bike folks use. You can get this in bulk one gallon sizes. And the extra weight on the front won't hurt one bit. In fact it will help with rear mounted Equipment.

Sorry, couldn't resist...

If you find some let me know. I'm to a point I can't stand to put on a new set of tractor tires because they are thorn magnets!

Richard, this won't help with your rear tires, but Genesco in Houston Texas sells used airplane tires. They have sizes to replace any front tractor tire. They are heavy ply....22 ply, 24 ply, even 36 ply. I've never had a flat on one. They are also much cheaper than new tractor tires. Their web site is WWW.NOFLATS.COM

Al and Richard, I assume you are trying to solve the thorny tire problem. A semi-solid, rubber, tire insert is made to solve this problem. Contact Miller Tire Co., one of the YT supporters here. The link is under the parts suppliers at the left. Inserts are made for many sizes including tractor and construction equipment tires.
