My Kubota tractor is one tuff little unit but I have always had problems with flat driver tires. My tractor was bought new and had
5.7L-15 6ply rated tube type tires. About six years ago I ask the CT Members for help with tires and was referred to Genso Aircraft tires, so I ordered two which included new wheels and filled with some chemical that prevents flats, they were great tires and still look like new, but.. they were ordered with farm tread and delivered a almost slick aircraft tread, which does not work well in the winter mud and cow manure, finally one wheel fell off the hub because the lug nuts worked loose, which damaged one wheel. Now I am looking for new steering tires and Firestone tells me that they do not manufacture a tubeless steering tire for my tire size. I have shopped online with no success. I called an out of the way tire store in Montgomery and was told that they would look for the tires. They later called me and told me that they found two steering tires, size 5.7L-15 8ply tubeless, which is what I want. These tires are an off brand named TREADURA $80.22 =tax each. I went on line and could not find how, where or who manufactured them. I really believe that American Made is the way to go but if America does not manufacture what I want then I just don't know. Have any of you had any experence with these tires. I would appreciate any Information you have.
Thank you, Kerley
