I have a JD 5520 that I replaced the tires on. I used the same size tha was on there but used radials. There is a relatonship between the size of the frontand size of the rear and you have to get it close, I think,or you can mess up the transmission. The tractor came with a front to rear tire ratio of .77 and the factory suggests .74. On newer tractor models I have seen factory mounted different size tires that give a .725 ratio. My radials give a .79 ratio. Anyone knw about this to tell if my .79 is too far away from factory suggested .74? I could swap the front radials back to bias and have a .74 and I'm thinking of doing that.
