They are Radial All Traction 23 degree. I needed a taller tire since the cab on this build would need to sit higher due to clearing the rockshaft and 3pt arms. I normally use good years for my restorations, but I knew I these would be less money and likely be better in the field.
As for the glass, I have since replaced the window with a deere glass and new jd seal and cleaned up the mess. My supplier worked with me on the broken glass and gave me a discount on a 4020 engine kit I needed. So all is well except for the little nicks in my paint.[/quote]
