Bob Bancroft said: (quoted from post at 16:36:38 12/12/09) Based on my experience with an articulated tractor, a big front wheel assist tractor, and combines, I would prefer duals anytime. But yours is a different animal and a different situation. We have seen pictures of that tractor on here have we not?(with the canopy and the dog(s)attached)! I don't see how you could add duals without adding considerable width. I recently bought an antique 40 HP tractor that should have had 14.9x28 tires. It had 13.6x28. So I sold them and bought new 15" rims and put on 16.9x28. They stand a tiny bit taller, but not excessively so.
That's the one....
looking at my owners manual, it "LOOKS" like they would do the trick by manipulating the way they are bolted to the centers. If I could figure out how to convert the pic from .pdf to .jpg I'd post it. However, if the extra width would just make me swim on top of the soup, maybe I should just add weight to what I have? I have about a 600 pound weight for the 3pt but need to figure out how to get a hitch on it. Gonna put the loader back on so the frt will be heavier also.
As for the mud on the road question, if you have a green license plate (marks you as a farmer), you're usually OK. Some are curteious enough to shovel up the worst if they make a big mess on an intrance or something, but some just leave it lay.
One more ???. With 10 inch rims, how wide of tire could I put on and keep my rims? Or, how much wider than a rim can a tire be and still do the job?

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
