HeadExam 1,783 #78 Posted May 25, 2015 Spot on Alain. Thanks. Is that the correct size too? I need to check the tyre sizes for the front. Cheers Yes, you want 4.80-8 or 4.00-8 no real difference, just some manufactures measure from the sidewalls and some measure the top of tread. They also make a thinner tire in a 3.50-8 tri-rib and they are fine for lighter machines, but not yours. I have way over 4,000 in tyres, I've done a little research. Like the difference between a a Carlisle multi-trac CS and the Kenda K500 super turf or a Kenda K505, pick the kenda k500 super turf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldBuzzard 186 #79 Posted May 25, 2015 Here it is! the famous Wheel Horse TOWING the Bolens photo I get the impression Andrew didn't like this photo being taken Now i'll go hide You aren't fooling anyone with that pic. It's very obvious that what appears to be a tow strap is a piece of steel bar stock painted tan, and the Bolens is really pushing the Wheel Horse :yankchain: 3 Triumph66, slf-uk and HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's very obvious that what appears to be a tow strap is a piece of steel bar stock painted tan, and the Bolens is really pushing the Wheel Horse :yankchain: I was really struggling with that picture until you guys posted the obvious answer. It's a very convincing picture and it is very easy to be fooled into thinking the Bolens is being towed.
