Hello- new to the site to here come the questions...

I just picked up a B7200 and will be putting new tires on it (probably just front's for now).

Currently there are turf tires mounted on the front and rear, and thats what I'll be replacing them with as well.

Current front is 20x8x10 but the manual is calling for 20.5x8x10. Rears are 31x13.5x15.

Is a new set of 20x8x10's OK in front or should I try and get the 20.5x8x10's?

Thanks!

I just put 20x8-10's on my B7200 and everything works as it should with no issues. There are a lot more options in the 20x8-10's.

Whatever you buy make sure it has a rolling circumference of 61 inches
or within 2% of that ( not 2 inches! ) or you will or very likely could have
problems with your 4WD system.
I've mounted and measured different brands and close sizes and they're
not close enough in size to work. The 20.5x8-10 Bridgestone PD turf tires
and the 21x800-10 Firestone Turf & Field which were the most common OE
tires Kubota used both have a rolling circumference of 61 inches. That's
the "magic" number you're looking for and both the OE tires are no longer
being produced unfortunately.
