Tire Selection Kubota Grand L 3430 best size turf tires

[Robcat21]

I have a Grand L 3430 with Ag tires. I use it for mowing (pull behind finish mower), brush hogging about 5 acres. I also have a front mounted L2194A snow blower with joy stick for up & down & directional shut adjustment. I was hoping to put some oversize turf tires on as the lawn is getting pretty torn up with the ag tires. A while back I was looking to put on a backhoe (BH92) and maybe a front loader later but was told this would not work with the mid drive hardware and brackets?

Please, any help on tires and good places to find used? Also suggestion on how I might add a back hoe without adding front loader now or adding front loader without losing ability to have front mounted snow blower?

Robcat21,

Just seen you post while searching for something. Also realize this is nearly a year old and likely to have found an answer by now.

My setup is a bit different than yours, but I have no problem running the front snowblower with the backhoe subframe attached. Keep in mind this is a L3130 w/BH90. Not certain why the BH92 subframe would be all that different from a BH90.

Probably no way a mid mounted mower would work with the backhoe subframe (just a guess on my part judging by the size of the subframe where the mower would be).

Assume yours is 4wd. That means the diameter of the tire needs to match what you have currently. I just went looking for turfs for my 2400 which came with 12x16.5 industrials. 33x12.5x16.5 is the turf replacement, the 33 being the diameter. Titan, made up in Des Moines was the only co. making a turf that fit.

Unlike Ag. tires, industrials and turfs are not for plowing. I don't use my 2400 for that and in the short time I have had the turfs on, I have to use my 4wd engaged (inds still on front) to get traction under certain conditions. Course you have to look at the facts: Turfs weren't made for traction. They were made to be kind to the turf...............
