Currently have Turf Tires on my 91' B7100. The 60" Belly Mower is shot so I am wanting to use the 7100 pulling a tiller in my garden, small grader blade & small rotary cutter. I need to change from Turf Tires to AG Tires. Can I use the same rims or would I need rims specifically for AG Tires?

Others have done this, the real problem is you will need new rims!!! It is a rather $$$$ change over.
Hodge had a really neat B7100 with awesome looking tires on them, he sold it but those tires where the catz azz!!!
He might or other might be able to point you in the right direction, but beware, the rolling ratio is very important, IF you did find tires for your current rims that are not the same as current tires RC - then you will be spending a lot more money if/when you are in 4wd !

Hi Kevin, welcome to the forum. Hokie and NIW are right about the rim change if you want traditional narrow R1 tires. However, if you just want a bar tread you can keep your current rims. Hodge and others found the Kenda tires for the front and there are several options for the rear.

I'm reading thru these posts trying to find something for hubby's B7100 4 wheel drive tractor.
Like several have stated, the turf tires are shot plus he wants to change to the ag tires. He knows he will have to probably get new wheels, but are having a hard time finding what we need + the tires.
All the threads I've read are kinda confusing and I don't want to get the wrong ones.
I just need to see where we can find either ag tires for the wheels he has the turf tires on, OR where we can find the correct wheels and ag tires for it.
Thanks for the help!
