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.

Any experience? They are four ply.
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.

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.
I got 2 V61’s with tubes from GCT Wholesale on eBay for $122 plus tax. Free shipping.
