I heard of people putting them on top of a grain drying system. But that is flat landers for you.

I've heard of guys throwing them in a hog building pit (in the really stinky stuff) for several months. I don't know if you would ever get the stink out of them, I suppose eventually!!!!

I have heard of the same thing but with cow crap one thing about it you wouldn't have to worry about somebody "nosing" around them too much

Just leave them in shed for a year or so. They will age and cure. I have heard of Cab owners buying tires in advance and leaving them in basement for as long as possible to let them cure.New tires are always a bit green. These cab drivers claim to get twice the wear out of "cured" rubber.

Different termonolgy in Australia, sorry about that. Yes I mean Cab as in TaxiCab. Like we see on all the New York movies and in that old TV show Taxi (with Danny DeVito I think). I Know there is a bit of difference between a Taxi and a tractor but the theory would have to be the same. Just let them age in the dark like a good wine.

One of the frozen chosen north of the US. Our tires are always rock hard due to the sub zero temps.
