Does anyone know if I buy the "large" R4 or R14 tire package on LX2610 if it inhibits the fronts snowblower from working? I've read that it inhibits mower usage, which is fine, but I havent seen anything on snoblower.

Thanks!

I don't see how they would. The mid mount mower is an issue as the tires would come into contact with the gauge wheels and possibly the deck itself.

Know of no interference issues with either front or rear snow blowers but the required front steering stops will reduce maneuverability a bit and preclude the use of tire chains.

I will have to give the bigger tire thing some more thought, not sure if the slightly bigger contact patch and slightly higher ground clearance is worth the issues with the bigger tires.

I have the standard R14 tires on mine and I like them. I also needed the mid mount mower though so the larger tires were not an option.

I have the larger R14’s. No blower as I’m in Georgia. Looking at the front, I don’t believe the tires would come close to the front mount. I can take pictures with tape measure if needed, Justin.

I can't see any problem as long as it doesn't make the tractor wider than the blower
