I have a B 8200, as with most, the tires are rotten, after hurting my brain for a few weeks , here I am, it came with 13.5/16.1rear, traction 24/8.5/12 front, turf fronts are no longer available and the rims have been welded, (broken at bolts ) NOW I have a set off of a b-26, 13.6/16 turf rear, 24/8.5/14 front , turf on rims brand new, the ratio I come up with is 1.4960 for the old ones, and 1.4572 on the new ones, depending on the specs I get off line about circumference, ( I know the front rims are a slightly different bolt pattern and design) but I have access to a machine shop to change the bolt pattern, ( offset on rim if pointed out is close) so my question is , will this work ? thanks in advance

My advice - if/when you make it work - and I am sure you will, I would say you are in that so called 3%

Common sense - DO NOT use 4wd on non forgiving surfaces ......... always have the fronts on something that can slip a bit.

I am hoping the dimensions I got off line on circumferences are right, and of course my math LOL many will be more experienced than I am Thanks
