I believe your manual suggests swapping the tires side to side to increase the track (distance between the wheels). Have you investigated this yet? I swapped my front wheels side to side to increase the track for loader operations and side slope stability. It did help...I gained 4-6" total increase (eyeball job, not measured).
Personally, I'm a believer in filling the rear tires to aid in stability. The liquid gets the weight as low as possible. This increases the resistance to the tractor to roll to the side.
I know this was the topic of a recent thread comparing fluid filled tires to wheel weights. I believe you were a poster in that thread, Nuru...
Anyway, I'd swap those rear tires around before adding spacers.

Hello Roy, yes i am considering getting the tires filled however, they were okay with my 4100, but I dunno with the increase weight, those slopes and my fledgling lawn - I am a bit worried about slipping and damage to the lawn. I have the weight box for the 3PT hitch. But you know, having the tractor fall over is more of a concern!
. I m,ight end up with hub spacers, the tires set at the widest seetings, and filled rears. I spoke with my local dealer and the individual who will be working on my tractor this week is gonna check the width of the tires on the wide setting. He indicated that he seemed to remember the difference on the 4310 was not significant, so he was gonna measure and call me.
