Hi Guys.

Am newbie will post. I have researched the threads and have seen all the info on ratios etc. and certainly do not expect anyone to go into a lengthy discussion again. What I could not find was what the original size front rim and AG tire on the 240D was? I have the light green coloured 240D with the english decals. Mine currently has a 14" rim and has 6.00-14 LDV tires on the front. The rim certainly looks original and similar to the photo's and brocures I have seen on the net. On the front tire I would appreciate as much info as possible (i.e make description etc. so that I can see if I can source any tires locally). It seems as if I will not be able to get the original size AG tire in South Africa but the guy from Bridestone South Africa is having a look for me. Based on our telephonic discussion I am not very optimistic.

The tractor has brand new 11.2-24 AG tires on the back btw.

I would really like to get my tractor as original as possible.

Any help will, as usual, be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Your YM240D should have 6-14 AG tires on the front.

"Mine currently has a 14" rim and has 6.00-14 LDV tires on the front."

Why do you doubt that is the correct front tire size?

I am not really doubting the size of the tire Norm. The problem is that it seems I cannot source it locally and the more info I get the better the chances of sourcing the right tires.

Thanks for the responses guys.

Spyder2,

I own a 240D.
Garage kept for its lifetime.

The original tires on the front are 6 - 14
The original tires on the rear are 11.2 - 24

The information you are getting is accurate.
