I had 11L16 wagon tires on the front of my MF-135 for a few years. Took 8" wide rims but didn't break anything and it kept the narrow tires from mashing down into rutts they made when I had a lot on the loader. Actually the wide tires often steered eaiser than the narrow tires because they weren't sunk in the dirt.

When I moved the loader to my JD 4020, I took the rims and mounted 11.00-16 in place of its 7.60-16 and I think its front will also last longer because these tall tires dont' snag in plow furrows when going across the field.
