I cannot answer the questions about working but I can answer a question that you did not answer and that conserns the diameter. The 205-75 X15" tire is a small diameter tire, the next size up is 215-75 and then 225-75 and then 235-75 so you have quite a bit of difference in diameter-height there. Don't have a chart to tell me how much, now the 7:00 X 15 is not listed on any chart I have found. I have the 235-75X15" on mu trailer and am when I do some repairs switch to the 7:00 X 15" truck tires and when I do that I will gain about 3" in diameter. So with the difference between the 205-75 and 235-75X15 I am guessing about an inch and a half (have those sizes but not going out in the snow and ice to measure and then the 3" difference between my 235-75X15 and the 7:00X15 of 3" the 205 would be about 4 1/2" shorter or smaller in diameter and that would translater to the axle setting 2" closer to the ground for that much less groung clearance and acording to that a lot slower transport speed plus a lot less traction due to the way smaller size. Set a 205-75x15 next to a 7:00x15 and see what I mean.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
