Rest in Peace
Beats me, Jeff. I never could figure out how they decided which models to give that feature and which ones not to. Of course, you can tell just by looking, but then the manual also makes a point of mentioning that they are not adjustable.

Bird,
I wonder if the wheels on the 2710 are already set at a wider position. Maybe the fact that my B7500 has 4 width settings (manual only shows 3) is to allow the owner to make the tractor thinner. I would guess that a lot of people who buy the 7500 instead of the 2710 are using it in tighter areas since it's smaller. It would be interesting to compare tire widths.

Jeff, I've got R1 (ag) tires and the manual shows rear tread width of 41.3", but of course, that's center of tread to center of tread. Actual overall width from outside to outside is approximately 54".

Bird,
My tires are currently at their furthest in position. I measure 50" to the widest point on the tire and 38" from the center cast ridge of the rubber. I have r4's. My axle has 3 more positions out on each axle but I'm pretty sure to use the last one I have to turn the hub around which would be a further inboard adjustment. Each position adds about 1" on each side making my total possible width 54" to the outermost point on the tire and 42" to the center of the tire. I suppose the difference in tires might affect the comparison though. I am assuming that I cant use the outermose setting because that would put the face of the hub beyond the end of the axle. Does anyone have any info on this??
