Any issue with going to a 8.3x16 R1 from 7.2x16 R1 on the front of a FWD tractor? Rear tires are 11.2x24 also R1.

The 8.3 is 91" in rolling circumference, the 7.2 is 86". I'm not sure what the margin for acceptable variance is. I guess it also depends on how worn the rear tires are.

I would not risk destroying the front axle.
