call me the dummy if I missed something here BUT you said one is leaking around the valve stem and you want to drill and put another in. DO YOU HAVE TUBELESS. I would say no and only tubeless have valve stems mounted to the rim. SO this means your tubes are leaking. the valve stem is part of the tube.surface cracks mean nothing on a slow rpm tractor tire as long as it is not deep cuts.remove rims and take to a truck tire repair shop. (call ahead to be sure they will take your size tires) have them dismount the tire and look at the rims inside. calcium cloride will eat up a rim real fast.have rims steam cleaned; sanded; sand blasted; painted as needed per their condition. have orignial tires remounted with new tubes (calcium cloride if you like) and install on tractor. they will also come out to your place and do repairs on site if you do not want to remove from tractor yourself for a extra charge.then enjoy for years to come. P.S. tubes can be repaired with patches but since they are 40 years old just replace to be safe. HOPE THIS HELPS.
