John, We have 2 100+ hp tractors here on the place. Both have 12 ply airplane tires on the fronts. One with Slime, the other with tubes w/ no slime.
The slime does make a difference on little leaks and such, for the airplane tire carcus has some small breaks and the slime keeps them sealed up, one needs to check the pressure every couple of months or so. Also with each tire carring about 5 gal of slime, you get addtional front wt factor too, when farming. I prefer tubes on my tractor for my first set went 10 yrs before they needed replaceing, only had 2 flats on them. This set as been on 2 yrs and so far so good.
Now being you are in mesquite country I would Slime up your regular Ag front tires and run them till they can't go any farther. Then call Gensco @ Houston then get a set of airplane tires to replace them.
Where in Texas are you? I am in Cen-Texas, 26 S. of Lampasas, if you would like to see a set. Hope this helps. Later, John A.
