Bob: I'm not sure you guys have me convinced. Yes, I have seen this work on larger Farmalls with 38" tires, but then they do have a lot more rubber on the ground. I had mis matched tires on my 300 for about three years once, and agree I couldn't notice the difference.

These little tractors don't have more than 2 treads touching ground at any given time. This tire I bought will only have 1 tread on ground at a given time. My Super A has 9.5x24 tires and I checked today and it has 20 treads around the circumference, and made in the USA by General. The 12.4x24 on my 130 were made by Astro in Canada, with 19 treads. My 140 has 15 treads per tire and made offshore, I didn't bother to write it down so now I can't even spell the name of them. Before I put the new Generals on my Super A about ten years ago it had mis matched tires and it was noticeable. What is noticeable today is Super A with no weights, solid or liquid, will give my 130 with wheel weights and 140 with chloride a hard run on my two bottom fast hitch plow.

My dad always said you have to exercise more care with a small horse.
