Tire Selection Turfs to Ag on Ford 1210

[Bowhunter828]

I have a Ford 1210 with very dry rotted tires. I want to change to Ag tires. This little tractor is a 4x4 and I know keeping the front to rear Ratio correct is a must. The tire sizes are: Front- 20x8x10 with a 63" ground travel to make one complete rotation. Rear-29x12x15 with a 93" ground travel to make a complete rotation. I want to change to 31x12x15 on rear but what size would I need for the front. I think the ratio would be 1.476. I need the ground clearance for what I'm using this tractor for. Thanks

You need to go to a tire 21" to 22" tall. No Ag tires made, but you can use a 22x8-10 ATV tire.

Thanks Millertire. I looked up my data from the manual and it says 5-12 ag on front and 8-16 ag on rear for 4x4 tractors which mine is. I would need the rims too. Are these still available?

Whats wrong with the rims you have now with turf tires? Are the Ag tires a different size?

Carlisle also makes a ag v bar tire that will fit on the turf tire rims. The titans were the only ones that I could find to fit the front rims and still provide good traction.
