650/75R32 tyre - what have you got?

[ploughman1963]

Our combine came on 650/75R32 tyres but different brands - One has a flat tread profile while the other is crowned which means they have a different rolling radius and causes the combine to be slightly higher one side than the other - no problem until you put our 18’ header on that doesn’t have levelling and one side of the header is 4” lower than the other and causing premature wear on the skid plates.
One is an ‘Agri-ork’ from Ukraine and the other is an ‘Ozka’ from USSR?
Has anyone got a match for either tyre or a reasonably priced pair of tyres?
Many thanks
Colin

I can't really offer much assistance other than what I would do in the same situation and that is I would be on the phone to British Rubber Company in Yorkshire to find out cost of supplying only either one or two new tyres
I would never fit s/h as you just don't know what you are getting
Then I would call in at Newtown Tyres and phoning Colin Foulkes who is
ex partner and weigh up things
But I would keep away from Evans Tyres!!

I have just phoned someone who said be careful dealing with Colin Foulkes
as there was big bust up when he was partner with Newtown Tyres

Cant you level the feeder house on a NH?

Let one side down a bit.

I worked for years with a twisted header by lowering tyre pressure on one side

I sold a set of 23.4x32 not long ago

sorry had NH in my head for some reason
i know older JDs can be leveled,if not alter the tyre pressures a bit

Would it be worth contacting T Elsey? Just had some Alliance tyres from them. Very reasonable price.
