Another possible option, is to reverse the rims.
Some rims are offset and reversing them put them out further.
And to keep the tires going the right tread direction, move the tires from one side to the other.

After seeing where this thread started (someone reversing the rims and breaking both front axels) I'd need to "dig deep" and see if this is something Kubota has an an option for a B2650. The BX that started this thread was given that recommendation from the dealer..... Seems that was in error from the dealer costing their customer a down rig and likely some big coin in parts.... I'm just glad Kubota offers an OEM spacer option!

Sorry I was ONLY talking the rear rims, not the fronts.
