5000 tires

[Robert (ID)]

Ok guys.. the 5000 basket case I have been puttering with needs front tires, the rears are 16.9x38s
that is a lot more tire and height then the OEM 13.6 or 15.5x38s. roughly 1.5-2 taller static loaded radius
So any suggestions on front tire size? The OE was 7.5-16

Ive got a couple of sets of 18 rims maybe a set of 7.5-18?

I have a 5200 with 16.9 x 38 rears and it has 7.50 x 18s on the front. Tractor sits nice and level.

7.50-18 would go good with those 16.9-38 s
If you want a big front tire look at 10.00-16 but you ll need a wider rim

I have a 5100 (5000 all-purpose) with 16.9x38 rears and 7.50x18 fronts. Sits pretty level.
