5.00-15 Front Tires in Higher Ply Rating?

JBlavl · Aug 4, 2014

Currently the tires on the front of my Super C are old 5.00-15 4 ply tires. I'm getting very tired of spending time fixing tubes from punctures while brush mowing. I understand that they are old tires so just getting new ones will help right there but if I am going to spend the money I'd like to get some in a higher ply rating to try and alleviate the chance of punctures down the road. I found some 5.00-15 6 ply's but was wondering if they come in any higher ratings? I was unsuccessful in my search for 8 and 10 ply's.

Probably wont find anything higher than 6 ply as those tires werent used on larger tractors.

you can always get some car radials, used or new if you arn't worried about looks. the steel belts will help you out there.

If you are not worried about looks, my grandfather used to take another tire and put it over the tires mounted on the wheels - gives you an extra couple of layers. Good luck.

Just cut an old inner tube and put it inside of the tire like a reliner. I have did it many times and works great on an old tire with thorns.
