Deere-est Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I wouldn't break your back to find some more wheels Sean. If some come along and you want to have a tinker then fair enough but don't let the fron wheels hold your progress up as they look fine. What have you got in mind for the rear's because they arn't that far off either are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Superb Sean... looks fantastic mate with those wheels... they look spot on to me mate... the Silver cab 760's had bigger wheels anyway I think... like the 865's... Looking mighty fine mate as well all over :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 model looks great Sean, better than my 90's convo of a removable header :D Wheels are ok, they look slightly bigger but not by much. I doubt you can find wheels slightly thinner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Ignore Holmes Sean, they are spot on, don't go changing them, they don't look too big either, spot on. The whole combine is spot on, keep it up mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 considering i'm usually seans devils advocate for wheels , i think i should now step in & say some thing , ere they'm wheels be an backwards theesnow ! :D all depends what the ground on the farm is like as i dare say you could specify what size you'd like to suit your needs hardly going to ask for thin tures if there's a chance of sinking every time the tanks full , keep them as they are sean make an 800 out of her here's what i got on mine , next to the standard as a comparison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 mm what ben said inatially was my concern,as they do look a bit to wide, but i am alos used to the old skinnys so anything looks big compaired to those,they are of a ros combine i had started to convert into a beta, but had a small accident with that, it fell of the side /top shelf and cracked the casting, and i couldn't be assed to repair it so thats where the front sand rears came of, was going to add a set of oversized jd4020 style rear tyres onto it as the currents are mf 362 wheels and tyres, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
