wheel horse 312 0 #1 Posted January 4, 2011 :ROTF: will a 16x6.50-8 wheel and tire fit a 1992 312-8 speed if so what would i have to do to get it to fit :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,028 #2 Posted January 4, 2011 As long as it is a WH wheel it will fit, I'm guessing yours has 6" wheels, so that means your tractor has the long spindles, the 8" will fit the long spindles but the nose will set a bit higher, you can swap to the standard short spindle, one from many tractors will fit C's 300, 400, ect..... now if you have a 37" SD deck you will have issues with the tire hitting the deck with 8" wheels, but that is the only deck with that issue.

Kelly 1,028 #4 Posted January 5, 2011 Did you put the short spindles on?? if you did it should set at the same height as before Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dgjks6 6 #6 Posted January 5, 2011 Are you running the 37inch 2 blade deck? I don't think the anti scalp rollers should hit the ground, the front of the deck is suspended from the tach a matic and the rear wheels ride on the ground. You can adjust the deck height with the rear wheels and there are 2 adjuster bars on the 37 inch deck to get it level. But as Kelly said, if you are running the 37 inch deck with 8 inch wheels, the front tires will contact the deck when turning. The 36 inch rear and side discharge, and the 42 rear and side discharge, and the 48 inch deck should fit without a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
