Hi all -
i am looking to replace the turf tires on my 5215 with ag tires. the turf tires are on smaller rims than the ag tire require so have been trying to track down the correct size wheels/rims for the tires. the front tires sizes are 6.00-12's and the back tires are 9.5-16. my question is when i buy new rims, do i buy the same measurements as the tires or do i need slightly smaller rims (a guy told me that you need at least 1.5 inches smaller on the rim width (so buy 8-16s for the back vs the 9.5-16 tire size)?
any guidance/help is appreciated!
