I've got an Iseki TM3160 4WD.
The rear tires are Bridgestone 212/80D-15 Turf tires and the traction is terrible as would be expected. They're good as far as not damaging grass goes but for traction.....ferget it. I'm thinking a set of R4's would be a better compromise but can't find a comparable size. The stones have an o/d of 28.4 inches and a circumference of 89", any ideas of something close since it's a 4WD as they have to be close to the O/D...........Mike

You are not alone.
My CUT (4WD) wears 9.5 X 18's to match 5 X 12 up front.
Extensive searching has brought no results.
Using tire size charts I did find some matches, mainly truck tires so it is worth searching a bit.

By close you need to be within 5% with fronts being the +5.

PS my problem also was with Bridgstone which changed ownership a few tomes and is now owned by Michelin.

Well they say misery loves company LOL.
I was thinking LT tires also as the size appears to be a 225/75-R15 but I'd much rather have an R4, the circumference is supposed to be within 0.4% of the original Bridgestones.....so the chart says if you can believe that............Mike
