This depends on the center of gravity, height, weight, angle, speed, bumpyness of terrain, and turning angle and direction of turn.

In short, every tractor in every situation will have a different answer. Wheel weights, tire fluid, wheel width, operator weight, implemnt pulled & it's weight & forces.... No one will publish a document like this & get hit with the liablity.

Then consider, mowing the ditch, hit a metal bar with the lower tire & it blows - that side drops another 5 inches in an instant....

Or you see something, turn uphill & slam on the brakes adding lots of side-force...

To many variables for anyone to give a real answer, and probably also why there are so many roll-over accidents.
