I can take a pic tomorrow, but I have R1s set WIDE. Outside width is between 62” and 64”. They are about 1” or 2” wider than my 60” rotary cutter. The fronts are about the same width as well. I have a 3510SE. It’s a billy goat and mud monster. Much better than my old Deere 4400 with R4s. Don’t regret my choice one bit. View attachment 611752

Jc, this is awesome and I can easily see it. Hearing that its a "billy goat and mud monster" is also exactly what I was wishing to hear. I have alot of seeps, small creek crossings, and steep slopes where this unit is going up in Potter. Like you, my other unit w/ R4's just won't cut it on wet years.

BTW, I grew up in Westmoreland county! Thanks for taking the time to reply. Very helpful.

Also noted about turning and FEL with wider front wheels.

:thumbsup:

Oh, one important item to note about R1s set wide in the front. You can稚 turn full lock. The lugs of of the front tires hit the loader mount. It痴 not a huge reduction in steering radius, but should be noted nonetheless.

That is a very good point that would be easily overlooked.

My dealer did! I thought I had a front driveline issue when it first started binding and bucking during my first hour of use. I stayed calm and checked everything over and noticed the interference

Mine is fitted with R1s. The back ones are fine but I had lot of trouble with the front ones due to the FEL.
They were too soft and it was like running on balloons when I had a load on. They punctured easily in the sidewalls and one day when turning, one actually rolled off the rim. They were dangerous and should never have been put on with a FEL.
I fitted heavy duty Titans and it has been great since then.
