Maybe all of you are made of money, but I don't have an extra $300 sitting around to throw at a tire. The patch was a $25 fix and in my impression worth the attempt. The rest of the 6-ply tire is basically fine, 85% tread left, and no significant cracks. I had tire chains on it last winter, and the crack appeared in exactly the same spot as the latch for the tire chain.

This tractor is primarily used for mowing so there isn't much of a load on the tire and it isn't anywhere near as bad as the one posted below. But it sounds like the general concensus is that it doesn't matter what I do and I should be saving for new tire. Thanks for the feedback.
