Tractor tyre problem

[Islander71]

The tyres on my tractor are not that old or worn, but I have found a split going right through a tread on one of them. Not sure if there is anything that can be done to repair it or stop it getting worse - maybe filling the split with Puraflex 40 or similar to stop grit and stones forcing the split further? Any suggestions?

If you can be without the tractor for a few days run the tyre in and get it properly repaired, its about £50 for splits like that and you wouldn't be able to tell where the repair was.

Sidewall repairs you could put your fist through like this are only about £30

What can you advise for Krammer tires that have got multiple thin and small cracks on the treads.
The tires are remolds and are 3 years old.

Thanks for replies, I'll try the tyre repair filler as being on a Scottish island there are no tyre specialists here for a proper fix.
