Replacement Wheels for B1750

[AndyF]

My new to me B1750 has filled rear tires and I am seeing some corrosion at the valve stems. The wheels/tires are turf tires and I would prefer R4 or Ag for the work I will be doing with the tractor. Where can I find reasonable prices for replacement wheels?

Are these tubeless, and it's leaking around the stems, or is the tube leaking and it's coming out around the valve stem? Do R4's or ags require a different size rim? If you get the old tires off, maybe brush the rims, and if they are not pitted/corroded too bad, I would just weld up the old valve stem hole, and drill another in a different spot. Lot cheaper that a replacement wheel.

I'm looking at replacing the wheels and tires. The ag & R4's will not fit on turf rims. Your suggested repair is what I'm considering doing before selling the Turf tires and wheels.

I guess the question more generally is whether the wheels, especially the rears are unique to Kubota or can I look to other suppliers also?

I only found the used market that the price was right. Actually on the front ags the new/used was about the same as tractorsmart.com.

try these folks.. Used salvaged tractor parts including John Deere, Ford, Kubota and other Japanese tractor part dealers

Most dealers have extra inventory left from most models sold and many might fit your tractor. Sometimes just asking might get you good results! We often have to use e-bay or other sources to sell them.

Art,

Thanks for the suggestion. I've asked your Canastota parts department through an emailed inquiry. Hopefully good news. My local dealer's price is in the low 4 figures for a set of wheels and tires.
