    Can we mount 12 16.5 skidsteer tires on 10 16.5 wheels ?

    My case 1840 skidsteer has 12x16.5 tires where 10x16.5 tires should be hard to change since they are near new. BUT the 12x16.5 tires makes grading harder because the bucket is not flat on the ground like they would be with the smaller tires, something to think about.
