Tires Kubota 3240 front tire size options

[reprosser]

My local tire place carries 7-16, but not 7.2-16 tires.

Is it OK to use 7-16 instead of 7.2? Will it fit, and will it make significant difference?

I obtained a wheel with tire to try, and it has a 7-16 tire on what looks like the same rim as mine - so it looks like it might work.

I guess I will see how it holds up in the long run...

I think the first number refers to the tire width and the second number to the rim size.

If I'm correct, we're talking about less then 1/4 inch width difference between both tires.

It woud'nt bother me at all.

My thoughts exactly. Although, the person who provided the wheels said he had some issues with leakage around the rims.
