jbumgarner 12 #1 Posted June 22, 2012 I've had my tractors in storage for the past 8 months due to a move, and soon I will be getting into my new house. Then I will start the tear down on my 702. As I look at others pics to find what I want to do with it, I see some with wide tires on the rear. I don't want duels, but the wider tires make the tractors look beefier. Can someone tell me what size tires they are running and if the wheels were bought wide or do they widen them. Any suggestions or pic of your beefy set up would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Rooster 192 #2 Posted June 22, 2012 Most use a 23X10.50 tire for that. You will most likely want a wider wheel than stock. I think most guys are using an 8" wide wheel off of the newer tractors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whc160 80 #3 Posted June 23, 2012 Here is a pic of 23x10.5x12 on my one C-160. The rims are 8.5 wide & when I got them they had Craftsman tires on them. You can get wheel blanks & centers from M.E. Miller Tire. Then you can weld the centers in to get the off set that you need. I also put 7.50 wide tires on the front instead of 6.50 wide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,033 #4 Posted June 24, 2012 I don't have any rear shots right now but here is a round hood with 23x10.5 tires on 8.5 wide rims, I'm pretty sure they are Cub wheels and for this tractor the backspacing was perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
