I just brought a 1940 B back to life! After spitting smoke, flames, acorns, and burning leaves out of the exhaust pipe, it settled down to a nice smooth idle and purred like a kitten. This tractor sat in an open field for 20+ years and fired after only replacing the spark plugs, wires and oil.

Now I would like to put a new set of shoes on her, but I can’t find twin rib 5.00 – 15 tires. The only ones available locally are triple rib tires of foreign make. I seem to remember from years past that someone is reproducing vintage tires for collectors. Can anyone help with this search? Thanks, Greg

There are several brands of tires that have the original type tread the fronts are easy to get the correct size is 4.00x15. B.F. GOODRICH has the 45 deg tread for the rear. Depending on which rims you have on rear the 9.5x24 will look good on the 8in rims. Measure across the rims and if they measure 9in from edge to edge they are 8in. Local dealers who have acess to farm tractor tires mite have some foreign brands that have the 45deg tread. Great little tractors are the Bs as i have several of them and parts.
