I agree. Our local tire shop is top-notch and knows how to work on everything from a wheel barrow tire to a BIG tractor tire. I remember I was looking for some tires for my trailer. Said something about not wanting anything made in China. His reply was "they ALL are."
As far as tubes go, I don't want a farm tire without one. If you get in a tight and the tire goes REAL slack, you can limp a ways with it. A tubeless tire will come off the rim. That said, my dad's year-old 7130 JD has radials all the way around, and they are tubeless.

If not, it can be ordered and usually have it the next day if I order early enough. I had a very old hay rake with a really weird size. That one took a few days. Installation is available, reasonable and the help is competent, even if they are young. They are open Saturdays too.
