front wheel weights?

[clueless 3,115]

Anybody know what non wheel horse front wheel weight go for by the LB. I've got a set of simplicity 50LB weights.

Non wheel horse about $1 a pound

50 lbs is a lot weight for fronts.  Or, do you mean both of them weigh 50 lbs?

@clueless  front ends are very often neglected at best , what are your wheel bearings like ? HILLMAN MACHINE BUSHINGS , eliminate side shucking  / slamming , also use  lucas  green chassis grease , any increase in  weight / side loading stress . will wallow out  what ever base you have , also installed  XIKE  bearings #  532009040, repack  lucas green grease . only a suggestion , pete

Note: If they are for 8" front rims, they will work on a  too. Weight is weight. 

 

I'm guessing they look like these.

Good guess, I think their about 25# each, so around $100 for the set?

Would be a fair price.
