I agree with NS -- BUT -- I would keep the turfs, and if you can, still mounted on their rims. I've got R4's and they are better in mud and dirt than turfs but from what I hear the turfs are much better in the snow than R4's. I haven't experienced this yet... except for right when the tractor was delivered I tried to pull a stuck vehicle out and the tires were just spinning in the snow. I hope it isn't a sign of things to come this winter but if you check around everyone says that turfs are the cats meow in winter.

I will be definitely be keeping the turfs, I am afraid to find out what an extra set of rims cost

No need to get rims, you tires are not loaded all you need is a manual tire changer and sweat, lol. Plus it's a sweet item for the shop. Harbor freight item #69686

K, here is another reason to come out for a trip. If you buy these I will store them for you until you get here. These are bar tires, not R4.

Do it up, bro. I will go pick them up and pay the man for you. Our barter list is getting long. French Bulldog and Mini Dexters for Kubota tires and rims, pine trees, and beer. Seems fair enough.

And tires! Don't forget the tires. She will completely see your logic.
