B8200 Turf Tire Wheels

[ncridgerunner]

Bought a Kubota B8200 4WD that I am in the process of restoring. It had weathered ag tires on it. I happened upon a pair of new rear turf tires that had been taken off another kubota at little cost.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I could get some wheels that would fit the turf tires that are reasonable? I checked with Messicks on Kubota OEM wheels but the front ones are almost $200 each before shipping. (Those tuition bills for my daughter have to be paid before my little tractor project.)

Haven't seen any on ebay and have been checking Craigslist to see if anyone has them for sale.

The tires that came with the tractor are Front: 6-12
Rear: 12.4-16

The recommended turf tire sizes are Front: 24x8.50-12
Rear: 13.6-16

Thanks for any assistance.

I'm running 24x9.50-12 Carlisle on the front and I can get in and out of 4wd fine and the overall tire height doesn't seem much different than the 24x8.50's...and they're less than $100 shipped to your door with 4 ply rating (or was it 6?) and higher load capacity than the oem....I believe my B9200 is the same size as your B8200 tires.

Thanks for the replies. The wheels (rims) are what I really need. They seem to be hard to find except at the dealership. Don't really want to put $1100 for wheels in an $1800 tractor. And that is without tires.

I would buy them off of you at a fair price and pay shipping Gary 260 635 1410
