- Kubota M59, JD530, JD310SG. Restoring Yanmar YM165D
OK, I went out and measured the original tires and rims that came on our YM336D serial # 42514. The combination of rim and Ag tires below works well in 4wd. It gives 4.7% more rotation to the front tires than the rears - which is about right.
The Front tire is an OHTSU. Size is 8x16. Type is 4 ply Ag R1. Rim is D10JAPAN 16x6 UA mfg 3/85. .
The Rear tire is a Firestone All Traction Field & Road. Type is 6 ply rated Ag R1.
Size is 13.6 x 26, but molded by Firestone into the rubber beneath the 13.6 x 26 designation is the note "on 12" rim 12 x 26"
I'm not sure how the Japanese measure their rim width. The tire is still on the rim, so I can't measure inside of the flange that the edge of the tire compresses against. Measuring from the outside of that raised flange, the rim that Yanmar used with this tire measures to be a ABOUT a 12" width. No rim manufacturing numbers are visible.
Hope this helps,
