L2900 Switching from R1->R4

[Spudland_Dave]

My Dad's L2900's R1 tires have seen better days so the shopping process has begun...When we bought the tractor we took the R1's, after 6 months of use, we wished we had gotten R4's...
Question...whats the best place to get the R4 rims for this machine? TBN searches has provided me with the info needed to get the correct tires, but Rims are my problem now. Would Kubota dealer be the cheapest place to get the Rim/Tire combo? Are there any aftermarket rims available? Any cross references to currently available/other models in case I can find a set?
Thanks!

Spud Dave,

Kubota has the rims with rubber from your dealer at reasonable costs throught Wholegoods as a machine attachment. If bought throught Parts, they cost more as individual items.

Unverferth of Kalida OH is probably the largest aftermarket source for ag wheels and tires.

Good luck!

I hate to revisit this constant discussion, but why do you feel like he needs R4s? It seems like it is going to cost a lot to make that transition so the need must be significant.
