Has anyone had issues with the front right side tire wearing? We only have 230 hours. We have called the dealership that we purchased it from and they said that driving it on the road will do it and said to switch the tire. The tire leans out on the top.
M5-111 front right tire wearing on outside of tire
- Thread starter S and S Livestock
- Start date
The front tires are two different brands. The left is a Goodyear Radial, that I can tell, I am guessing the right hand tire is not a radial. Road wear is much worse on bias ply tires than a radials. My M5-091 has the Good Year radials, close to 400 hours with plenty of highway miles and show almost no wear.
I just went and checked…smh. We bought this brand new in 2019. 2 different brands and sizes. Thank you!

Your tires are not a matched set, they also look to be different sizes. You have a Firestone on the right side and a Goodyear on the left.
With the Firestone being a shorter tire, it is going to wear on the outside more than the left tire.

You mean the tractor was delivered brand new with different sized tires side to side on the front?? I wonder if there is any damage to the front axle gearing due to this serious oversight on the dealers part.
You never noticed the difference in tread pattern or size until just now?
When I bought my tractor the tires were shipped as a seperate package that contained the wrong sizes. Had to wait till the correct ones came in. Kubota has some real problems that they better get worked out.
