Can you adjust the width of the rear tires on a RX7320? I can't seem to figure a way that they are. I have the R4 tires and it is too wide to fit between the fenders of my trailer. So I have to load it with the rear tires behind the rear axle of the trailer which gives me a nasty sway due to no tongue weight.

Welcome to TBN......................
Usually, wheels that have R4 tires are not adjustable, only R1 Ag tire wheels have adjustment.
How wide is your trailer between the wheel wells? Most are 82". A landscape trailer may only be 76" between the fenders.
If your trailer is a landscape or plain car trailer rated at 7000# it is not built to support the weight of a 7320 which shows as 5589# without loader or any rear 3pt. accessories. If you have a cab, loader and any 3pt. tool you are probably pushing close to or over 7000#.

Sway is dangerous. How about; can you put more of a drop on your receiver without running into a problem?

Or you could put an anti-sway device on the trailer of some kind. Maybe. Don't know for sure


I'd give them a call and tell them your problem.

Many of the larger tractors with R4's are on adjustable rims, need a picture of your rear rims to say.

Like Lou says. depends entirely on the rim configuration and not the ire mounted. Need a picture for sure.

From what I can tell from looking at pictures on Tractor House of RX7320s, none with R4 tires are adjustable.

Now for plan B, a new trailer.

Good luck.

Take a pic of your wheels and show here. Then someone could tell you if they can be adjusted or not.

Attached are some photos of the rear tires. Current trailer is 14k GVW, so no weight issues. Just need the fenders to be moved out an inch on each side. But not enough clearance to trailer tires without rubbing. Would love to buy a new gooseneck deck over trailer. But hard to justify to my wife. Just bought the tractor, some attachments, a class A motorhome, vehicle to tow behind it, and new zero turn in the works. Maybe I can buy it and just tell her I'm storing it for my Dad!

NOT adjustable for track. Good luck on the motorhome. Talk about sticker shock, there it is, in spades. Terrible fuel mileage and exceptionally high fuel cost will result in extreme wallet drain.

Not knowing where you are but my Kauffman deck over GN is for sale. I really hardly use it anymore. Used to haul round bales but my customer now picks them up so no need. Been think about listing it on Tractorhouse. Has new 10 ply tires, removable ramps and beaver tail. 14K load capacity.

Afraid those are non adjustable rims, and loaded with beet juice.
Won't be cheap but new 16" wide rims with separate centers will likely be your best bet.

Only problem with a deckover is the overall height when you get on older secondary roads.

Very true on the upper deck. The lower deck is never an issue. Double stack rounds on the lower, single on the upper.

I was thinking of his new cabbed ? tractor, 10 -11 feet tall plus a 3 foot high trailer deck,
getting into that 13 foot plus height can get in trouble in some places.

Live in PA about 2 hours north of Philly. How much are you asking?

It sure looks to me like it would be narrower if the wheels swapped sides. Keep thread direction the same but switch sides,

The rim surfaces look flat so should bolt up nice. You wouls lose a little bit in stability from having a narrower tractor though, Plus the valve stems would be on the inside.

For sure those aren't adjustable, I just learned something new, it's another good day.

Did you get the owner's manual when you purchased it? I dunno about the model you have but in my manual they tell you all the width configurations which sometimes involve switching the wheel inside for outside.
