Tire Swap

ElDorado · Oct 28, 2009

I am working with my dealer, still, on a Kioti DK45. Currently it has R4's. I would prefer R1's. Does anyone know if Kubota rims will fit? I have found a number of Kubota dealers that have tire/rim combo packages for sale on line and as I wait patiently to hear from my dealer I can not help but wonder....

I guess my real question should does anyone know the bolt pattern for an '03
DK45? Are there other manufacturers rims that would work?

Thanks all for the help.

Could you post some links to the tire sellers?

I've lurking in the shadows of the tractor world for a number of years now. To that end I am always snooping around looking. There is a dealer called Unioin Equipment (unionequip.com) in Maine that I have seen tires listed at before, they have some now.

Additionally I have stumbled across some on ebay and craigslist in the past.
I also look out back at dealers to see what might be laying around, you never know.

Good Luck,
Matt

I hear ya. My Kubota came with turfs and my dealer struggled a bit to find some different tires/wheels. I am going to assume, perhaps wrongly, but still.... that your dealer, especially if you have yet to make the tractor purchase, it your best bet for swapping out these tires/wheels.

I often go to Union Farm Equipment and they do have tires on rims for sale. BUT! They are items that were exchanged for others by customers when they bought a tractor. I.E. they had a used B3030 Kubota with Ag tires on the used lot. When the tractor was sold all of a sudden a set of Ag's appeared that fit a B3030/7800. Customer wanted something else and they are selling what he wanted switched out.
