Price of tractor tires

Had two rear tires put on the JD 1010 today. 6 ply Titons, Hi Traction, 13-6 /28.

Tire, tube, ballast & labor = tad under $980.00.

Priced it 2 or 3 years ago at 600 guess the dollar needs gas...

I knew tractor tires were pretty high - didn't know they were that high :shock:

I'll bet $250 of that is NOT the tires.

Yeah, hard to find a tire store that is run like a charity because they go out of business.

Would be more informative to all of us, if you could post the cost broken-down by tires, tubes, ballast, tax, etc. Thanks.

If they were Firestone's I'd say it was a good deal...

I told the manager that $104.00 for a labor charge was low.

$52.00 per tire is cheap!

Chinese tires, right? USA made would be about double that.

That is rediculous. A EGR valve for our '97 f-150 is $48, a year ago it was 19.95. Prices are getting crazy. But the economy is getting better. (they say.)

How many stars & stripes????? Just kidding......
11,2 x 28 (8ply) costs 175 bucks mounted and trashing the old tire. Not sure where it's made, but the tread is slanted anyway...

Friend had a sweater on with an American Flag on it. We were at their house for lunch and a visit (they're German). Wife got ------ cause I kept staring at the sweater (I didn't realize it was so obvious).
It had 11 stripes and 45 stars..... Bought it at a vietnamese flea market in one of the former East Countries.

I ordered him a real American Flag Sweater and traded him........

I just ordered 4 new tires for my MTA. 15.5-38 and 7.50-16. Tubes, but no ballast. Just a shade over $1400. The manager of the local tire store mounts Ag tires for free so he will get everyone's business. He knows he'll get his money back doing service calls...
