<div>I should have mentioned 24" tires in my other post. There
are a "lot" of small farm tractors running 24" tires Like my
Farmall Cub, The Farmall A's and B's, my Massey Harris Pony,
my Allis C and the B and CA's and whole batch of others. Many
of these are tractors that their owners are very personally
attached to and might be more prone to put new rubber on and
keep them forever.</div>

<div>My father had a set of these on his Ford 9N and spent a
lot of time cussing them, said he would never buy any
again. They were bad at loading up with our waxy clay mud
when trying to back out of a wet spot. They were smooth on
the road though which would make them good on antique
tractors for parades and drives. Then of course they look
"proper" on old tractors. As you say, they need to come in
more sizes like at least a 12.4 and 13.6 and at least the
same widths in a 38" tire, and also at about half the
current price. $1,100 plus is a lot of money for a set for
old tractors that are very rarely earning their keep...
Larger sizes would be higher and maybe even exponentially
so. Few people want to spend $2,000 getting new tires put
on an $1,800 tractor. :-)</div>
<div>I constantly watch consignment auctions for
"functional" used tires like Spencer mentioned. Something
else I have done several times is buy a rough tractor with
a pair of good rears and take them off to use on something
that needs them and then sell the donor tractor. One I
recall was a Co-op that had been back-flipped in a woods.
I bought it for $200, took the rears off and ran them on
my Deere A for years and sold the Co-op for a little more
than I paid for it. Another one was a rough Allis WC with
nearly new rears bought cheap and the tires swapped with a
really crappy set on a very good WD I had. I also sold
that old WC for a tiny profit. It would have been even
better if I could have just switched wheels but you can't
have everything. I was a good bit younger then and
swapping rears wasn't nearly as much work as it is now.

<div>There's a reason just about every manufacturer went
to 23 degree lugs. I prefer the look of the old
straight 45 degrees though. Of course what I really
wish is that Firestone would make the old "turkey
track" Champion Ground Grip tires from the late
40s again! You can get 10-28 (11-2 28s) but that's
it.</div>

What's the difference between 45 and 23 degree,
other that the obvious?<br>
