Saber 15 #1 Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) I have some 23 X12 lug type tractor tires with 1/2 in spacers on the back of my 314-8. I'm needing new front tires which are now 16 X 6.5 X 8. I would like to put on some larger 16 X 7.5 X 8s on the front. I have a 48in deck. Does any one use these? Will they rub or interfere with anything? Thanks in advance.

Geno 1,928 #2 Posted August 14, 2014 You really won't gain much as you are limited by the rim size. The wider tire will just ball up and not look much wider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shallowwatersailor 3,213 #3 Posted August 14, 2014 When Wheel Horse went to the swept front axle on the 520-H in 1990, they upped the size to 16X7.50-8 and the rim is wider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
