Front tire size

Postby Dusty B » Sun Apr 11, 2021 8:42 pm

Any recommendations on front tire size for a B w/double front tires?? Book shows both 4 x15 or 5 x 15!! Both are shot so might as well do it right! Any recommendations for reasonable price to pay?? Local dealer usually treats me well, but certainly not locked in by any means!! Thanks in advance! Dusty B

What size fo you have now?

The 5" might provide a marginal benefit on soft ground!

It is just me, but I would stay away from import tires!

I like the Firestone, Goodyear and Titan brands if they are still US made!
Goodyear ag tires is part if Titan now.

There is a American Farmer brand that is (was) US made, I had a set that was on a cub I sold. They seemed nice!
