I called a Carlile dealer and it will be 292 for all 4 mounted, those scrawny fronts were 65 each and 81 each for the rears.

Hi dieselram ,

I don't think that's a bad price at all , $292.00 for the tires ...

What did he do throw the mounting in for free ???

Are you going to make it happen ???

Later,x595

Are these R4 tires the same diameter as the original tires, or could you get the R4's as original equipment on your X? If not, I'd be careful using those R4's in 4wd without proper calculation. I went through the same thing a few years ago trying to trade out tires for my Kubota B7510. I couldn't find the exact size, and when I called the tractor manufacturer, they said that you shouldn't just run around throwing on tires that you want or in your case "ones that look good" without checking rotation. Improperly matched tire diameters will allow the axles to rotate at different speeds allowing your lawn to get torn up, and ultimately, tearing up the gears in your tractor due to overwind. The gearing in the front and rear differentials are set to turn at certain speeds with certain matched tire sets that allow the specific ratios. I'd just hate to see you tear up your tractor.

They are the exact same size and the same wheel and tire for the 2210/2305 (my turfs) so the same size in a R4 will be fine. X595 that does seem like a good price and that is mounted but after swapping for the R4s, I am kinda hung up on them! The very sad part is I don't need the HDAP or R4 tires to survive, it is really for the coolness factor. I like must stuff looking good and mean! I am still trying to swap my R4 for R1 ags on my 4300 but that has a purpose. I need the traction there and I obviously don't finish mow with it just loader backhoe brush hog stuff mainly. Plus I have some really soft spots on my land and I don't care what they tear up as long as I am not stuck.
