I have an TC33D with industrial tires. I would like to get a set of extra from wheels for it and put turf tires on while I mow. The indy tires are digging up my lawn. But I want them for winter. My dealer is trying to find some used ones but has not been successful. Does anyone know where I might find some used wheels?

Thanks

Bob

Bob, I hope that you are aware that if you change only the FRONT wheels you must either, a) get new tires that have exactly the same circumference as the industrials, or b) run the tractor in 2WD ONLY while those mismatched tires are on the machine.

There is a ratio between the front & back tires that must be maintained or damage to the drivetrain will result.

Best of luck. ....

I've got to assume the dealer is recommending a factory set of tires and wheels to go with them or at least knows what is recommended will keep the front axle lead within spec. It is an issue and has to be dealt with one way or another. I've heard of people getting into situations where they find a tire they like and then can't find a matching for the other axle that has the right circumference.

Especially if the winter work is on ice with a snow blower, you might try the turfs and not worry about swapping tires. Turfs work pretty good on ice. ....
