Does anyone know where to get the front tires that quite a few people are running,i think they are called Hay rate.They are a knobby type tire.I want to make sure that i'm pronouncing the name correct.I live around the Mt.Orab,Georgetown,Milford.Ohio. I also go to KY quite often if you know a place .

Those are close. They have a sideway's V-pattern on the outer edge.But that name sounds better.

You can go to any tire store that sells farm implement tires. They are the tires they use on Hay Rakes. Older hay rakes are powered through a chain (i think) connected to the wheel (a backwards chain drive lol) so it has to have traction to turn the rake, thats why they are knobbed. Dunno the size right off hand, I have it written down somewhere just gotta find it.

Traction implement tire is what they are called. Here is a link to where you can get some. Look under the traction implement section.

I run these as well. You can go to any Goodyear/Firestone dealer and get them. They are miles better than a ribbed tire.
