Hi all. First the question, then the back story you can skip if you're not interested.
Are the bolt circles for the front and rear tires on a '96 B1700 the same as on a '94 B7100?
Skip the following if you'd like...
I have a B7100 with some real aggressive ag tires. Fronts are 6-12 and rears are 8.3-16. I'm not sure how it ended up with 8.3-16 instead of 8-16, it was just the way I bought it. Anyway, I'd like to get some turf tires for it. On a whim, I was perusing a couple of the local dealers used tractor listings and noticed a couple B1700 with turf tires on them. After looking up the tire sizes (on tractordata.com), I noticed the B1700 takes 6-12 and 8.3-16 ag tires (no turf tire sizes were listed). MAYBE they'd be up for a trade. I gave one of them an email and found that the tires they have are front - 23X8.5-12 with a 6 bolt pattern and rear - 33X12.5-15, also with a 6 bolt pattern. They're not what the manual calls for, but they ARE right in the sweet spot for circumference ratio.
So, to recap;
I have:
6-12 AG fronts and 8.3-16 AG rears, both with '94 B7100 bolt pattern
They have:
23X8.5-12 Turf fronts and 33X12.5-15 Turf rears with a '96 B1700 bolt pattern
Would it work?
Thanks
