Guys, thanks for the info, I very well may take these to a shop. There's a garage right down the road from me that can do it, I should even be able to drive the tractor down to them, what's amazing, with the stem half broken off I'm still not leaking air beyond what was missing already. This weekend was crazy, and I never had a chance to check and see if I could remove the stem, if I can, where can I purchase the stem, would tractor supply carry them?

With your wheel laying flat on a solid surface, take a 2 by 6 and put the end of it on the tire against the wheel rim and drive your truck up on it. It will pop loose.

This is how I did mine. I had calcium and weights. Drained the calcium first. I had a rear that would not pass air either way (stem removed) till I punctured the calcium deposit at the stem. Three more pix on server, I'm still a dummy at posting them.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that mounting non-turf tires on the rims is directional. I spent too long trying to figure out why the tractor tread was facing the wrong direction, moving them from side to side.

My mismounted tire effects movement of the draw bar lowering for the plow.

I guess George and I have the rustiest Tires and rims cause they are a SOB to change unless the rim is in real good shape
I pour a mix of transmission and diesel around the beads a few days in advance, might not help but does make for a mess :D I think it does help but I am hard headed

Good point Grandfathers Cub... I came real close to mounting one wrong... but sometimes procrastiantion works to my advantage... It can pay to sit and look before jumping into action!
