Hi, I have two Cub Cadets I am getting ready to pull with. (Stock tractors, but I want the Douglas Polished wheels.) The Puller that will be a dedidated "stock class" is a 1961 Cub Cadet Original. The other one that I will pull with, but use around the house just a little bit is a Cub 1811 Hydro. ( Basically a clone to a 782, only yellow and white).
What is the best size of rear wheel and tire combo for the Original using Douglas wheels?
Same question for the 1811. I have seen 23x12x12 on some of these 782/1811's in pictures, but will they fit with the stock readends?
I know those wheels cost alot for both tractors, and I really don't need them especially for the 1811, since I will use it some around the house, But I like the weight savings and more grip for the Original. The 1811 was purchased new by my grandfather. He passed away and I got his Cub. It will be restored and only used around the house for entertaining my 2 young boys. I don't need the wheels for this 1811, but the tractor, to me anyway, is special enough to get the polished wheels and tires!
Thanks for your input, Jason
