Thanks for all the replies guys. I'm a new to tractor ownership and appreciate your input. I'm asking around to see who can do tractor tires onsite in SE WI. I'll discuss my options when he looks at the tires/rims (15.5-38, approx $275 for just tire).

The most appealing option seems to be to drain and remove both tires, clean & paint both rims, patch (or make new) stem holes if needed, remount old tires with new tubes, and refil with the tire guys fluid of choice.

I could clean, sand blast, prime and paint the rims myself possibly. This would require the tire guy to make at two trips out to my place. I do not weld (yet), if the stem hole needed patching I would have to take the rim off and haul to a shop.

Any additional thoughts, comments, helpfull hints, instruction are most welcome. Thanks again.

Doug.
