I dont know if they make these in the size your your tractor but have you thought of looking for Maxxis Bighorns, they are really good for all around performance. There is also companies that make ones with really similar treads but cheaper like Traxion Grippers. I know Wanda makes them too. It really depends what your driving in. I am just using my Mudbuster ATV tires I got from a parts bike for my new build.

Some tire shops will put them on for you...

If you decide to do it yourself, make sure the tire sits down into the "valley" of the rim before trying to pull it over on the opposite side. Some rims are offset, so put the tire on from the side that has that valley closest to the edge.

Good choice!
Having put tires on a lot of mower rims, I can sympathize with you on this.

they are amazing. i tore a hugggeeee hole in a path on accident. but for mud you really gotta have it in 4th or lower. i have a 20hp engine and it stalled or over heating 3times. 5th is for slick mud thats not rlly thick and you know you will get through it. 6th is for flat ground pretty much.
