Question for 1529 and 1500 series tractors. Can the front tires be swap from one side to the other to make the front wider? The wheel offset looks like more, I haven't measure yet. If someone has, did cause wear one the front suspension parts? I live in mountain's and thinking about it for added safety. Also looking loading tires.

Ok I have R3 tires. Today I swap the two fronts from side to side and flip them with the dish having out. The front are now 55" wide, the rear are 56" wide. That's measuring outside of the tread. Appears gain 6".

I have a 1529 & I believe you can set the tires to wide or narrow, relatively speaking. My dealer had mine set up wide when I took possession of the tractor.
