I am purchasing a new M7060 and have the dealer swapping the ag tires for R4. I stopped into check on progress of the add-on's I purchased and it appears that the rear of tractor sets lower in the rear. The tire size is 16.9-24 rear and 14-17.5 front. I also confirmed this is what it called for when I built the tractor on line, but I think the dealer swapped tires from another tractor on his lot. I was wondering if anyone has seen this or knows if there is a 16.9-24 with a taller sidewall available? Or could give me a measurement from draw bar to ground.
Thanks

All 16.9-24 's will have about the same side wall height, and yes it will be shorter than the AG tires. ;)

It drops a lot as the rear is the same size rim as what the front used to be with R1's,

Thanks for the reply. I realized I was going to lose a few inches in height clearance, my concern is that it sets lower/unlevel with the R4's in the rear. I have a NH tractor with the same size tire, but when I measure the side walls it measures 14" the Kubota only measures 12"??

Loaded or unloaded, and maybe air pressure difference? :confused:
And yes there might be a little difference between tire manufactures. ;)

Yes the tires are loaded on the NH and the Kubota. I just looked at the tires on my NH and they are the same brand as the Kubota;Titan.
Then it's probably an air pressure differance. ;)
