Did you change your air at the 50 hour service? Another reason to have your dealer do the 50 hour service, only THEY have Kubota air!:laughing:

Wow. I just purchased a BX25 less than two weeks ago. Today, after hitting the five hour mark, I looked down and noticed my right front tire was flat. And coincidently, I'm from PA. I'm just hoping I didn't shred the inside before I noticed it...

Good luck with the tube! I had one put in my FL tire...lasted about 6 months. Went flat yesterday. Going foam baby! If it leaks now...I've really got problems!

I put tubes in my front tires this past weekend. It is very nice not to have to air up every hour anymore! When the tubes start going flat on me eventually, I'll probably just replace these crap tires that came with an otherwise great tractor.

You could be 100 by then and probably won't care.

Im against tubes. My tubes lasted about a week. Then I was dead in the water for a hole day of work planned. I guess you could say im part of group 4, take tire off then put tire back on. Havent had a problem yet. If it still gives me grief, im going slime or foam. Kubota doesnt really seem to give a ***** on the issue, which really pi$$es me off...
Its kinda like the toyota recall for accelerators. Its a pretty common apparatus that shouldnt need no attention.

I have one front tire FL) that goes flat over a period of a few months. It has been slimed, and that helped slow the air loss but I still need to check it if the tractor has been sitting for a bit.
I almost rolled it off the rim 2 weekends ago as I forgot to check it, and grabbed a large rock (400-500#) to move to a new location. As soon as I got on short grass I saw the tire was in bad shape, but I really did not want to have to reload the rock, so I slowly and carefully made my way to the rocks destination. Then, once I dropped it, I got out the old bicycle tire pump and got the tire pressure back to where it should be.
More of a nuisance than a hassle at this point.

does it seem as though the right front tire is giving more problems than the others, on my BX my right front leaked through the sidewall but the tire was not cut or punctured. My left front leaked but not nearly as much as the right, but I could not tell where it leaked from
