While browsing "the list", I found this set of tires with wheels for sale. I picked them up for a $100. which I thought was a very fair price. They are Titan Trac-Loaders 23x8.50x12", and they look brand new.
I'm going to put them on my Case 155 for now because that tractor does not have a mower deck just a tiller, box blade, and a front blade.
The tire lugs do not look as deep as regular AG tires, but they should be an improvement over my current tires.

I've often wondered how well those would work on a GT, keep us posted.

I have them on my BX and they do a great job.

Here is a picture of my 155 Case wearing the new tires.
I tried it out in the woods beside my portable garage, and I was able to scrape a nice path alongside of it with plenty of traction. The area I was in was full of loose soil, and invasive bamboo. I think having these tires helped a lot. Soon I will be using the 155 with the rototiller to turn up an area of weeds and roots. (wish me luck)

As far as the deal for the tires goes, here is the story:
I saw the tires on Craigslist a couple of nights ago. I texted the owner at around 10:30 that night, and he called me the next morning to say that he had a buyer lined up for the following day, but if it didn't work out; he would call me. Well, he called me late in the day, and said that the buyer had to back out because he didn't have the money. I told him that I would be there in an hour with the cash. It was a good 45 minute ride to his place, and it was rush hour, but somehow I got there with time to spare. :BlahBlah: He showed me the tires, and I had forgotten the amount that he wanted. He said that he had them listed for $110, so I gave him two 50s, and a 20, and told him to keep the extra $10. He wouldn't keep it, and he didn't have change, and shoved the 20 back at me, and said $100 was good. :BlahBlah:
Normally, I always try to get the price down, but this time the seller did it for me.
He also had a 680 Cub that he was willing to let go for $150.00 It ran great, and the power-train worked fine. It had no deck and looked beat up though.

That is the kind of deal I like, where both parties are happy with the result. You did a great job of finding them and they look great!! Nothing like some new shoes on your tractor!
