Tires L4330

[tcmike]

Hi Folks!
I have not been here in years but thought of TBN while researching a tire issue for my 2004 L4330dt. It has 8-16 R-1 front tires. They are too narrow and sink into soft ground especially with the bucket loaded. I need wider tires.
After a lot of research I found a R-1 tire that is wider but the same hight (diameter) as the 8-16.
The problem I have now is how do I find wider 16" wheels to fit the tires - lug pattern- off set of my tractor?
Anyone know of someone that makes wheels?
Sorry, I left the tire size home - I'll post it tomorrow.
Thank you.
Mike

The tire size I found is 280/70r16 Michelin Super 8L. I need a 9 inch rim.

You need to 'start' your search with the known dimensions of your present wheel. Your factory rim is: 6 bolt hub
Bolt Circle 6"
Pilot Hole 4.625"
0 offset
5.5" wide...
I think you will have no problem finding that rim in 8 inch or 10 inch width.... KennyV
