V-61 tires price and availability

[exSW]

So who's got the best price? Not Walmart this time. Turns out my three point hay rake takes the same tire size so I'll be buying four. I see they come in four and six ply four's probably plenty for the application. An old post indicated you could buy them Straight from the manufacturer but I don't know if that is still the case.

meMiller tire has the V-61. I bought mine there, and they were priced very reasonable. The shipping was reasonable too, and they shipped them quickly.

They are made in Thailand.
Not China. In fact we fought a war to keep China out of Thailand.

Not knocking the tire, but it is more like a tire with grooves cut in it instead of a ribbed tire like the V-61's.
Not the best pic of the tire, but here is one for comparison.

Bought mine at miller tire V61 they are a 5 rib tire. Even makes the steering easier. Less contact than a turf tire; my opinion

I have those on my loader tractor, for the sole purpose of making it easier to steer since it does not have power steering. I would not buy those for any of my other machines, since the front ends would slide all over the place without a ton of weight on them.

Get the V61s, not these.

Sounds like they may work for the three point hayrake. They don't do much but set the height.
