Deere's New Rims On UTV?

[Funkster]

While I was on Deere's site looking at the new HD brushguard kit, I noticed that the gator in the picture had slotted yellow wheels with chrome inserts. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about these wheels and if Deere was going to make them available? If you guys haven't seen them, look them up:

That's the 1st time I have seen them.
519NASCAR has the front brush guard. I hadn't seen it before either.
The brush guard looks so much better than the old headlight guards.
Even the fender guards look beefier.

Do you suppose they used an aftermarket rim and just painted part of them yellow?

yea deere has a habit for useing others stuff and putting thier name on it for a price increase. the brush guard looks really nice though. gonna have to make one as for the rims i wonder of they had a side view?it is good to see that they are atleast getting into the parts department.

That's true about Deere putting their name on other's products. I use to work at a JD store in the parts dept. I'm going to do some snooping around and see if I can't find anything about those rims.

Those rims were promised by JD at the dealer show a few months ago to be available by spring.

I guess I'll have to corner my salesman and see if he knows anymore. If not, I'll corner a Deere rep at the National Farm Machinery Show.

They are shipping that way. Truck driver for my local dealership saw them down in Bryan, TX a couple months ago. He snapped some pics with his cellphone for me.

Just got off the phone with my salesman. He said that he saw them down at the dealer show in Florida. They had 2 different styles. One all polished aluminum, and one yellow w/aluminum inserts as shown. He also told me there will be more accessories coming this summer. Deere is getting pretty serious about these new gators. They're even coming out with a new muffler from FMF that's stainless with a throatier growl and increase in performance. Only for the 620I. The gator that this stuff was all on was $25,000.00. So maybe by March we'll know more.

Exhaust looks good, kind of pricey at $300.

25k they crazy they better add some more hp under the bed too for that price.

Just thought I'd let you guys know that I talked to a deere rep at the Louisville Farm Show on Saturday and they said that there are 2 new rims coming out and that they would be available next month. I figured Deere would have a dolled up Gator there, but they didn't. And the rep was disappointed that they didn't. Not sure about the cost though. Guess we'll have to wait and get scared!
