I am looking on purchasing new turf tires and wheels for my B7500 and I would like to know if the (29X12.50-15 Rear and 21X8.00-10 Front) turf tires that are installed on the B7400 would work on the B7500.

I tried Kubota engineering dept. and they were not helpfull. But I tried my Kubota dealers service manager and he feels that the B7400 and B7500 rear transaxle and front axle ratio's are the same but he is not a 100% sure.

I guess I need to find out if the rear transaxle and front axle ratio's are the same on the B7500 and B7400 tractors.

The reason I would like to install the (29X12.50-15 Rear and 21X8.00-10 Front) turf tires is it would lower the center of gravity on the tractor which I feel it should make it a little bit more stable and most of all it would than make my tractor fit in my garage without cutting the doorway opening.

If anyone can find or has the answer I would be deeply greatfull.

Thank you.

Well I found the answer.
I checked both B7400 and B7500 parts manuals and found that all main drivetrain gears in the rear transaxle and front axle are the same part numbers.
That would tell me that both the B7400 HST and B7500 HST tractors have the same ratio's and that means you can use the B7400 Rear 29X12.50-15 and Front 21X8.00-10 turf tires on the B7500 with no problems whatsoever.

The B7400 turf tires should drop the tractor roughly 2" and that means I get the 3/4" clearance I need to put My B7500 in the garage.
