my old kubota L185dt had some real bad tires and rims on the rear so it was time to fix it. my local scrap yard had a tractor that they were parting out. so for $200 they sold me the rims, tires, and wheel weights. but they were not the same bolt pattern. well that did not stop me. lets get out the drill and make them fit.

    Sitting out in the weather is not helping your wheels ,let alone your tractor , it should be stored in dry when not in use! My dad would have a come apart if I parked my tractor out in the weather!

    I don't think you have enough meat to hold'em–plus wheel rides on hub not lugs..sorry

    The tire having small cracks doesn't mean much for a tractor tire, it still will have years and years of use, unless its in the sun and it goes on hard terrain all the time.

    Could you make shim around the hub and tack it to the wheel?

    I can't finish watching, I'm a stickler for drilling as exact as possible. See you next time Mustie. "Your tractor…"

    Wouldn't it have been better to have a steel wheel spacer machined to suit the bolt patterns to both old and new wheels rather than drilling bolt holes so close to edge of centre bore. You will be risking placing torque through those edge cut holes as you pull away or dig in with those rear wheels.

    Just a thaught to think about for future

    Better get out the old checkbook and get yourself some new rims and tires. Hehe ouch!!!
