Who makes the industrial bar tire for kubota

[shrekbelly]

gentlemen,
am curious who makes the industrial tire for kubota, that is available on the bx2350 and not the bx1850. and also wondering what that reason might be-why it isn't offered for the bx1850? thanks for your time and attention shrekbelly

I don't know the answers here, but I do know that the BX1850 uses a smaller tire size, and they might not be available in that tread pattern. There also could be an interference problem with that tread, and the mower deck.

My 2350, purchased earlier this year.. came with:

OTR Traction Master tires

front: 18x8.50-10NHS

back 26x12.00-12NHS

not sure who OTR is.. but the tires say American Made.

Isn't OTR the acronym for Off The Road ?

Looks like OTR IS the manufacturer....

OTR Wheel Engineering, Inc. - Catalogs

That's the tire!

Now, my 3130 has Firestones on the back and Titans on the front.

I'm not sure, but don't the dealers choose the tires? I've seen the tractors come in and they're in wooden crates with no tires or wheels. So, I guess the manufacturer of the tires could be different depending on who you buy your tractor from. The dealer probably has certain specs from Kubota and just looks for the best tires at the best deal.

Titans = Goodyear

I also believe that Titan = OTR too.

Go to Titan International | America's Best Since 1898 and there it is.

So OTR is both the acronym and the manufacturer

"OTR Wheel Engineering, Inc. was founded in 1987 by Fredrick B. Taylor in Rome, GA. OTR is the leading specialty "Off the Road" tire and wheel distributor in North America..."
