Does anyone know what size tires and rims are stock for the B-212?

16X6.50-8 is what mine had... 4.80-8 also came on them I think

They used 4.80-8 on B 210 and other models that had the 10hp motor in them.

Maynard (or whoever would know) - Do we have a tire chart showing tire and wheel sizes for the various models? Would such a compilation be useful? I know many of you have this in your head, then there are us newer members without a clue on this. -Don

If you go to the SimpleTrACtors web pages most of the tire sizes are listed in the model specifications.

This is the link for the 212 - there is nothing in there about tire sie. Anyone have any ideas? http://www.simpletractors.com/models/b_series/hb-212_specs.htm

16X6.50-8. That is what is on my HB 212 and the rest of mine that are above 10hp. http://simpletractors.com/models/b_series/1968_cat/more_features.htm The above link is for B 110 & B 112. Same as B 212 except hood and a few other minor details.

I am buying 16x6.50 - 8 tires on ebay. Do I need inner tubes for the tires?

[RayS 71]

The tires are tubeless.

IMO yes, I put tubes in all of my garden tractor tires. Tubeless or not.

I agree with Mike 100%. If I need to remove a tire for any reason (front or rear) or have one leaking it always gets a tube. IMO it's cheap insurance for flat tires from bead or valve stem leaks. Dan Dan

So using a tube is only optional - but a good idea?

It's like Ford vs Chevy. I prefer to run tubeless.

I'm with the tube guys. Anytime I change a tire, even putting on new tires I put tubes in them. I figure I save time over going tubless because you don't have to struggle with getting the beads to seat to inflate the tire with a tube in it.
