I'm heartened to see that someone else has a problem with the "running uphill" look of the 460/560. Few tractors look better than these two do all painted up, but they look like they're squattin' and taking a dump with the standard rubber on them. I just thinks it makes them look weak.

If you're gonna pop big $$ for new 16.9s, I certainly recommend getting the 15" rims for them if you can swing the dough. These will allow the new tires to lay down the proper footprint, and will let the 16.9s look fat and meaty.

I'm finally getting around to replacing the old 13.6 x 38s on our 460. I'm putting on new 13.6 Firestone 23 degree. Ideally, I would have liked to put a bigger cross section rubber (14.6?) tire on it, but can't justify the expense. Besides, 13.6s are what came on the 460 new.

It looks like I'm gonna have to replace a rim anyway. I discovered one rim is 11" and the other 12". No wonder that one tire didn't look right when mounted.
