Default Simplicity walking tractors

I've got a Simplicity model "V" that I picked up at Portland this Spring. Anyone out there have a reasonable source to tires and tubes? I need two 6-12 chevron tread. I have two that have marginal beads, but wouldn't think it is too critical as they use tubes. What a pain in the butt to demount/remount!! Hard enough trying to find a place that will do them...say the rims are too small. Guess they don't fix those small spares!

Carlise makes a 6-12 with 45 degree lugs called the "Super Lug." If I remember right it looks alot like the Goodyear tires that were on the 1960's Speedex.
