Even a LT235x70-15 truck tire with a load rating of D would work and would be about 28" tall.

backspacing looks to be about 4.5"

Purchased wheels with 4" backspacing from the link someone posted on the other page

Will 235/75R15 fit a series C toolcat? Is load range C too low?

You should be able to check tire clearance at the extreams with the info you have. That tire is a 29" dia so I would think it would fit with that rim. If it were me, I would try to get a D load range tire as I run over the occasional stump/rock. If I was crawling over that stuff daily, go with a E rated tire.

I have been lurking on this topic for quite a while. opinions are like A**holes, everyone has one. I have settled on BKT LG306 tires. at about $125 each, not that bad on the pocket. they are turf tires and I think will sute the cat well, at least for my purpose. the current lug tires flat out suck for snow that is for sure. I have to pull the trigger soon as snow is coming to get us here on the east coast. I am interested in the new wheel info provided above. if anyone buys them would sure like a report as to how they work for you. thanks

Wheels bolt right on without issue, they are 15x8 with 4 backspacing, 6x6 pattern with 4.63 centerbore. Oem wheels appear to be 4.5 - 4.625 backspacing but extra outboard spacing doesn't look like itll cause clearance issues. I ordered another set of 27x10.50-15 R4 load range D tires for $375 shipped from simpletire. The wheels were just under $300 shipped so I'll be into them for around $700 total. If I have winter traction issues I'll get a set of chains
