L2850 parts question

[teach515]

Hello,

I just bought my first tractor, a KUBOTA l2850 2 wheel drive. It currently has lawn tires on the rear and I want to replace them with ag tires and wheels. Does anyone know the part numbers for the rear wheel/rim for this model. I have called the local dealer and they say they are to busy to help unless I am buying from them. (may be my age, I am 17). I really want to fix this tractor own my own, just need some assistance occasionally.

thanks, Josh

What is the wheel size that you currently have? If your rear wheel is
a 20-incher with a turf tire on it, for example, you can't fit the common
sized AGs on it. You will want to fit a 11.2-24 or 12.4-24 AG tire. I
don't think your fenders will allow a 28" tire. You do not have to change
your fronts since you have 2WD.

Depending on where you live, you may be able to find 24" diameter wheels
with the correct bolt pattern, used or left over at any brand tractor dealer.
Call around...it does not HAVE to be a very expensive Kubota wheel. That
Kubota dealer you talked to does not deserve your business.
