Rear Tires 2515

[kittyhawk]

If possible could I get one of you guys who own a 2515 with R4 tires go and measure the width of the rear tires?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the pics supporting the explanation Slim. I measured the mounting face to the tire edge on both sides and found negligible difference. Will leave as is unless I decide to do spacers at some point. Appreciate all the responses.

I come up with 61" give or take 1/2".

Thanks for checking that for me. I'm looking at the Branson 2515h and kioti ck2610, bobcat ct2025. I'm leaning towards the Branson but really concerned about the rear tire width. That helps a lot.

Off topic Slim but do you have a grapple? I noticed in the pic that you were moving brush with the pallet forks.

Bob,

I don't have one. I told myself I would wait to see what the layout of our new place would be before I bought one. Had enough trees to "almost" need one at the old place. New place (moved over the summer) has very few trees, and they're all in pretty little tree rows, nice as you please. Hard to justify buying one (and getting it past The Boss-lol) right now. If I start doing jobs off site that need one, then maybe I can convince myself to get one.

The forks were a no-brainer though. Needed those to move with. No way I could have moved some of my shop stuff, or my gun safe without one.

I've found if you mash a pile of brush with the forks and move back and forth a foot a could times, the brush gets locked together really well and can be carried without losing much of it.

I'd like a grapple but similarly I can't quite justify it (yet?) especially with how well the forks manage.
(For brush, I set them at max width; the forks are 48".)

Thanks for the replies. Same boat here... cost:benefit. I do pretty well with brush just using the forks though I know the grapple guys love them.
