Looking for advice on what width of wheel spacers for my LX3310. My property is made up primarily of rolling hills. The implements I use are FEL, 5' box blade, 5' brush hog, 6' snow plow, and pallet forks. I'm thinking at least 2", but not more than 3". I am also going to get the tires filled. My previous tractor was a BX2660. I had 1 1/2" spacers on it and could feel the difference. The LX3310 has a cab and feels a bit tippy right now. I've had it for a little over a month. Appreciate any advice from those who have used spacers and/or filled tires.

Following this closely. I just bought a LX3520 Cab and I can't get past the pucker factor. Maybe it will come with time, but, I'd like to make it as safe as possible.

Using the search feature as as WI_H suggested certainly should tire you out reading all the posts on the subject.

One thing in your post caught my eye. Highlighted in blue above. In my case I finally got spacers for my B2910 last summer, and I can't feel the difference at all. I went with 4" rear spacers.

I think the reason is I tipped the tractor on its side once about ten or twelve years ago. Gun shy once, gun shy forever I suppose...

I went with 2" spacers from BroTek. Same machine as your minus the cab. https://bro-tek.com/products/view.php?&eid=60160997

Night and day difference.

I think my final width of rear tires is approx 58". Be careful going to wide with the spacers if you don't want to get out past your rear implements.

I have used the search function. I cannot verify my bolt pattern as compared to those postings.
So I had an a lx3310 and now a lx3520 bolt pattern and hub are same so if you buy spacers for any Lx 10 or 20 series they will fit. I have 2.5” on mine helps a ton even that. Only thing to watch out for is if your have a mid mount mower dont believe their compatible. Mine are bro tek brand

Mitjam, I appreciate the help. That's what I needed to know, I ordered from Bro-tek. I had not considered the stick-out in relationship to my attachments. Thank you for pointing that out!
