Well I had an excellent conversation today with a great tire supplier that is in the process of making 10.00-24.00 grader tires!
They are expecting the first batch to arrive in November, i would encourage you to call and put your name on a list to reserve you a set if needed.

They also have front tire options:

What I have found impossible to find is the 9:00 x 24:00 6 ply ribbed front tires for the Cat 112 early '50s. I have looked for years including the Miller website and also had a local tire dealer checking and so far "nada" nothing! Another one is the 18:00 x 24:00 scraper tires used on the LeTourneau units. I am told that 19.5 x 24:00 backhoe tires can be substituted but we have to get rid of the bee nests in the old tire first!

tried to send a pm,,, ??? Get a hot shot no pest strip at hd or Lowes. $8.00,,, Hang it near the tire and cover the whole tire wit poly. Also if you have bees going in and out of a hole, cut a strip of it that will fit into the hole with still room for them to walk in and out. No pest strip is deadly on bees. Works every time. bees going in and out of a large area? Cover it with black polly. Cut a small hole for bees to come and go. Put pest strip in hole after they start using the hole.What I have found impossible to find is the 9:00 x 24:00 6 ply ribbed front tires for the Cat 112 early '50s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
