After hauling the junk out of the newly redone garden, I remembered I wanted to pick up these tyres from the forest edge.

The big tyre (1.6m diameter), which I could only barely wrestle onto the pallet forks looks unused, just minor age cracks (different rules from car tyres apply here). These cost about €400 each if you buy them new, a whole soviet tractor can be had for about €2500 with tyres far worse than this one. I even have a hunch where the other one might be.

Found a couple meters of 30mm thick wire rope next to them, too.

Matching wheels for the big tyre. One is in good shape, the other looks like someone had a terrible tractor accident, the flange is broken. And then stored it sitting in the dirt.
