Ply of 1872 front tires?
 
Need to replace front tires on my 1872. Don't have blade, snowblower or loader, looking at V61 HD 5-Rib tires, is there any reason I need 6 ply over 4 ply? Where is every one getting them? $70 @ Miller tire about going rate?
Thx

I think those tires are made for Miller like the 23* Firestones so I don't think they are available anywhere else. 4 ply will work fine.

Thanks Oak. Is there another similar tire that others are using?
Thanks

Similar to the V61's? Nope. It's those or a turfs.

You must have done something wrong. I just went to Millers site, chose the tires you want added them to a cart and estimated shipping and tax to Richmond, VA. It was $32.95. :bigthink:

Hmmm.... Tried it again & shipping was around $32 as you saw J-Mech. Strange.

Tim, those are 16x6.50-8 tires. He needs 18x8.50-8's. Too bad, as they are a good buy.

Good call. I wasn't thinking super cub when I found those.

I have used these before. not sure how they would work in the dirt but they work great on turf. 35 bucks each and free shipping

Samckitt,

The v61 tires are really nice. I got them for my tractor, and I like the way they track, especially going across hills--turf tires would slid down the hill. I ordered them with tubes as I read the v61 tires are made with metric dimensions and the Cubs wheels are standard size. I read that without the tubes the tires could go flat easier. I didn't want to take any chances and put tubes in them.
