TonyToro 1,044 #1 Posted August 2, 2020 I was offered some 23x8.5x12 ag tires but wasn’t sure how they will look on my/sons c-145. It has 23x10.5x12 now but just can vision what the more narrow tire would look like and how well they will work for tilling and snow blowing. If anyone has pictures please post up. thanks!

Lee1977 6,642 #2 Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) My tires on my 312-8 are 25 x 900 x 12 Alltrail II. I did raise the seat bracket, gas tank and fender 1 3/4". There was someone who put put 23 x 850 x 12 in the same tire on his tractor,but I don't remember who. Edited August 2, 2020 by Lee1977 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks limit raised you 2-3” center of the axle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TonyToro 1,044 #13 Posted August 13, 2020 I picked the 8.5” tires over the weekend. My son is sanding the rims and hopefully paint and mount the tires this weekend. After this we need to mount the tiller to the C-145. Thank you all for the pictures and advise. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
