DBlackston 298 #1 Posted October 3, 2022 I have seen several pictures of 854s with wide tires but have not seen information regarding what wheels and tires they are running. I'd like to keep my eyes out for a set. Can anyone identify this wheel/tire combo and sizes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 21,324 #2 Posted October 3, 2022 Those look like 23x10.5x12 tires on 8.5” wide rims. These pics are mine. Tires are Carlisle Tru-Power 23x10.5x12 on 8.5” wide rims 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,828 #7 Posted October 3, 2022 I forgot to add you can also get rim blanks and centers from Miller tire and make you own custom offset. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moparfanforever 851 #8 Posted October 3, 2022 This is my 702 with 8.50 Tru Powers. Not sure what the rims come off of, but they have a deeper offset than a WH wheel. The cost of tires for these tractors has gotten stupid expensive. I was going to buy four 10.50 Tru Powers, but they were going to cost around $600. I may just have to start putting tubes in my cracked turf tires 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nearly all models with UniDrive have 5-lug hubs/hole spacing (there are some 3-lug hubs but they use the same 5-hole wheels) and the same width across the tractor. What sets WH wheels apart from some other GTs is the setback (how far into the wheel does the hub go). That's why most wheels fit most tractors (yeah, there are exceptions for "big wheel" tractors like the GT14 and others). A great many models over the years since, I'd guess, the early 80's used the wider rims. (Remember that the measurement is across the bead seat, not the overall width of the rim.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will be going through Kansas City up to Weston, Missouri tomorrow afternoon and coming back home Saturday morning to mid Missouri if you want to meet me somewhere along the way. They are 520 wheels by the way. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The wider rims with the proper WH offset came on the 520’s and the GT-1800 and GT-1848 as far as I know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
