Thanks for the info Leroy. I did some more checking and found that moving the fenders inboard for clearance is easy (if you don't take into account the rusty bolts that will probably break off). I'll put some krol & heat to them, cross my fingers & twist. If I go with 13.6, it looks like I'll have to remove the outer part of my belt pulley as well. Other than that, I don't see a problem.......except the ridiculously high price for that size ($375 each + shipping). I have checked with the local salvage yard, but they want to sell me rims as part of the deal which makes it about $200 per side. That's a bit hard to swallow for a 60 year old tractor I only paid $400 for. This whole tire deal is starting to make me think about blowing a big wad on something more modern.......maybe something with a backhoe & a loader. Tim
