If the tires don't have any large splits or gashes in them I'd just put 'em back on and run 'em the way they are. They'll go another 20 years yet unless they get a split.

We just mounted an old iused Good Year on a dual rim last spring after I tore the original tire open. The Goodyear's have been laying around outisde in the sun almost as long as they've been off that same tractor the duals are for. They were taken off sometime in the 80's, so it was more than 20 years ago.

Tread separation and all, the carcass is still good, and they're good enough for duals. It's actually almost impossible to find a good used 18.4-34 around here any more, everything is 38" now. The mount/dismount and a tube was about $150, we dropped it off at their shop.
