I am in the process of deciding what brand wheel spacers will be the best choice for the rear tires on my LX2620. The Kubota spacers are terribly expensive, so looking at either Bora or Bro-Tek. Both brands are good and less expensive than Kubota. What is the group's opinion one brand over the other? Thanks!

I used Bro-tek for my LX3310, expensive yes but well made and no issues. I think I got the 4" and love the balance it gave my cabbed tractor on the hills around my property.

I had 2" spacers on the rear wheels of one of my compact tractors... It didn't seem to be that much help.. I wouldn't spend the money again unless I needed clearance for chains or other issue like that.. And the little I've read says any more than 2" spacers can be extra hard on bearings and the like... But then... Some people, like my big brother, could wreck most anything they touch.. KnowwhatImean... ??

2" Bro-tek for my B2650 (same as LX). No complaints at all. Nicely made. They made a difference that you can feel for sure.

I did 2 inch bro tek on the B and it did help, but 4 inch would have been better on the hills I think, but then I think the assend on the B should have been 6 inches wider from the get go.
