New member wanting advice on Yanmar tractors.

If the center hole is too big,, don't these somewhat support with the cener hole on the hub along with the wheel bolts? If the center of the wheel is not flush with the hub you will have more weight on studs. Its been awhile since I paid attention to my rims or took them off though I could be wrong?

Clemsonfor you are right they do help support in addition with the bolts, and it does help align things up. My buddy told me he could cut a piece to fit the hub and weld flush with the rim to make an exact fit. He told me that last night because I was questioning the same thing. But now that I have looked closer at the rims I have found that the offset isn't close enough so it probably won't work. It was worth a shot. Guess I will have to save up the money for Hoyes turf kit.

did you ever give hey wheel a call, to see what they would charge to make wheels work with your tractor?? Don't know if they would be less than the turf kit or not

 

[Jtullis13]

No I didn't but I will. I was hoping these would work since they were in a descent price range.

Do Kubota rims match up? I know California has large Kubota rims on his ym240. I just don't remember if they bolted up or if someone (he or previous owner) had the centers cut out of a yanmar rim and welded into the kubotas?

Are you in need of front or rear? If you need rear,.. I have a set. They are in my post about dual rear tires. They came off of a 240D and also fit my 2220D.

Different bolt pattern at the axle. Mine are Kubota rims on Yanmar centers, and that bolted up perfectly.
