David Bradley wheel size question

[GeeWhiz71]

Hello to everyone and since I am new to this forum I hope I have posted this question in the correct topic category.

I have a David Bradley 2 wheel tractor that I think is model 575135. I am wanting to put some cleated tires on it for better traction and am searching for something way cheaper than the ones at Gemplers. I believe the originals to have been 6.70 x 15 Allstate Ag treads. Can someone confirm this size to be correct? It has really old, slick 6.70 x 15 6ply U-Haul tires on it now. I have found some implement traction tires and also some skid steer tires in similar sizes but I don't know exactly how wide my current rims are. Can someone also tell me what the width of the original wheels for those 6.70 x 15 tires would be?
Thanks in advance for all the help and information.

The 6.70-15 tire was designed for a 4.5" wide rim and I would make the assumption that the DB
would have rims of this size. There is a bit of latitude in matching rim width to tire size so
if the tires you're looking at have a design rim width of 5" or even 5.5" you'd be fine. The
tire would be a little rounder than usual but since you will only be running a few psi of
pressure it won't hurt anything.

Just as an FYI there is also a Garden Tractor forum here on YT that deals specifically with
little machines. This forum, Tractor Talk, is kind of a "catch all" where discussions about
anything farm- or tractor-related takes place. Questions like yours would be perfectly
appropriate in either one. Just from my observations the Tractor Talk forum gets by far more
participation and from a wider group of individuals than the Garden Tractor forum does.

where are you located? If near me, I have a David Bradly with ag tires, weights, and tire chains. You're welcome to it. Motor is set up. You have to take the whole thing.

There is a website devoted to these tractors at [email protected]
It would help for you to include your location.

I am in north Mississippi near Oxford. That sounds like a great deal but I'm betting you are pretty far from me the way my luck goes.

Thanks for that information. I will check it out.

I have a D/B and have most of the implements for it. Plow, disk, sickle bar mower, harrow and I think one or two others. I'm in Missouri the Lake of the Ozarks area
