[AT] tire brand

[Aaron Dickinson]

I have used Carlisle fronts on tractors from a JD B to International 1066, no complaints. I have put Carlisle on an Allis Chalmers roto-rake and they have some pretty good checking, but the rake sits out and that front caster style wheel can get some severe stresses in it when backing up.

OK here is the latest. Getting rims local, about the same price as you 
can get anywhere on the net by the time I add shipping---plus I need 
them NOW.

Talked to 2 tire shops. Leaning toward the closest one. I'll have them 
mount the tires on the new rims. I'll then put them on the tractor and 
add fluid. Leaning toward a Carlisle--I had no idea they made any thing 
besides lawn mower tires. These tires will be a 45 deg angle, not 23. 
Replacing a set of multi-angle Safemark. The other option is tires made 
by Galaxy.
