Tire Selection Having Trouble Finding R1 Tires

[pat32rf]

On JD compact tractors they use different width rims for R4s and R1s.

Mine came with the r4s also as is typical. I've been running r1s in the winter and they work GREAT. I did not have clearance for chains on my 3015 plus my snow clearing clients wouldn't want chains used on their driveways anyway. I made a set of chains for them but haven't needed them. I had to get all four tires with wheels because of the 4wd. I was able to get them through my nearest dealer in Chico CA. Check with Bills Tractor in Texas if your dealer can't get them. Seems I paid about $1600 for my size. It's been worth it.

I had a NH 1220 and now a 1620 that both had turf tires / rims. I wanted to switch to the R 1's but could not locate used or aftermarket rims. The NH store wanted half again as much as I paid for the tractor. A consolation price would be finding an R 4 tire that fir on the turf rims. I ended up putting r 4's on the rear of the 1220 only before selling it. Can anyone help me out with locating the apparently rare R 1 rims for the NH 1620? tks
