I am replacing all 4 tires on my 763. I purchased the tires the other day planning on mounting them to the existing rims. Come to find out, 2 of the existing tires are foam filled. So I need to buy 2 new rims. Problem is, I can't find rims with the same offset (0.25"). New ones that I have found have offsets that vary from 4-3/8" (Ebay) to 0.38" (Bobcat). What gives? Does the offset need to match exactly on all 4 wheels?

My personal opinion is that the 0.38" offset wheels are likely close enough. An 1/8" is not going to make much difference in the grand scheme of things.
I have about a 0.5" offset difference on the front and rear wheels on my 440b right now, as I had to replace 2 rims, and it has not been an issue.
Hope this helps - SR
