Hello.
I have just bought a 1975 JCB 3D mk II for restoration.
I would like to ask if someone can give me an advice for which front tyre it must have. The manual says 12.0 x 18, but it is mounted with 9.0 x 16 on the rims usually found on the 3C model. The rear tires is 18.4 x 26.
Today it seems that 12.5x 18 is a common size, with an outer diameter of 99 cm, and a less common but available size of 12.5/75 x 18 which is 94 cm in diameter. The 9.0 x 16 is 85 cm in diameter.
Would it be a problem to raise the front by at least 5 cm when mounting 12.5/75 x 18 ?
When I see pictures of the 3D mk II model, it seems like a low profile 18" tire used in the font, where a 12.5 x 18 really looks bigger.
As far as I can figure out, the 18" rim must have a negative ET of -50 mm or something like that.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
