have a 220 with 24.5x32 rears, kinda like the look of the big turf tires on the front, mine has 11.00x16 3-ribs now, any thoughts on the size I should go after to beef it up but not make the front sit way too high?

Are turf tires available in the size you have now? Surely somebody, somewhere manufacturers them? Otherwise put implement tires on the front, we had a 706 years ago that way, looked kinda cool in my opinion.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

I always wondered if it harder to steer than a ribbed tire.

Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed

Sorry about the size. I've been on Facebook so and it's been so long since I've posted here that I missed a step . Tires have been on the front for 12 years. Salvage yard find. Tires from rear of a Kubota and rims from a 2745 MF. All the same as a 7080.

If I recall correctly, the 7080 was the only tractor from West Allis that came out with the diamond stud tires. I do like the look of them on Calvin's tractor though...

Down sized to 998x749 and then kept it on the left side. Sure wished I had one like this or with front assist when I was younger. Edited by JC-WI - 08 Mar 2024 at 10:54pm |
