welderman85 53 #1 Posted May 14, 2013 sorry if i posted this in the wrong spot. i was at the local farm store today and was looking at tires for the front of my Lt1136. they were made by a company called hi-run i have never heard of them before so i did a little searching and didnt come up with much for tractor tires so i was wondering what you guys thought of them. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don1977 604 #2 Posted May 14, 2013 Don't know who makes them. I have some with the same tread on a trailer. Been on there 30 years or more and still in good shape but it's been kept inside. I thank they are sold under a lot of different names. The name on mine is ARCO. Some have got some good deals from tire stores that sell on line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,520 #3 Posted May 14, 2013 I've seen the Hi-Run tires but, don't know who manufactures them. Perhaps made to order for Hi-Run by the lowest bidder. Made a purchase last week from Miller Tire. Totally impressed with the service, delivery, price. You might take a peek-a-boo if you need tires at Miller's website; http://www.millertire.com/categories/lawn-garden-tires/ I unmounted and mounted a pair of Carlisle Turf Masters, 23 x 10.5 - 12's. Was OK, easy enough. Then I unmounted a pair, 16 x 7.5 - 8's, also Carlisle Turf Masters. Now, thank goodness, a chore that needs doin' only once every 25 years or so! Ugh. :smile: PS. All were tubeless. The 7.50 width front tires aren't common (stock) at suppliers. A few local tractor dealers were out of stock, waitin' for delivery of tires this size.

SousaKerry 502 #4 Posted May 14, 2013 Yeah the Hi-Runs are Chineese tires sold by all the finest Farm stores and Ebay junk dealers at inflated prices. I think they start the newbies at the factory on the lawn mower tires and once they survive for a couple of weeks without loosing too many fingers they move up to trailer tires, then car tires.

Jake Kuhn 1,579 #5 Posted May 14, 2013 I have a set on my JD 112 and they have never leaked air. They aren't bad tires. I bought them from a family farm and home for $20 each a couple years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
