Wheel Weights

Recommended Posts

Scored some rear WH wheel weights and some FMC wheel weights today :D. The WH weights are going on the C160 if I dont change my mind. Leaning 520H for the FMC weights. They look just like some Bolens weights I have seen before. Got the xtra 7 1/2” WH wheels for free. Been a good morning these wheel weights are pretty rare around here so I’m happy to have found them.The WH weights are white but think I like um red better did certain years have red and others have white weight?

Nice! The factory WH rear weights allow you to unbolt the rim with the weight attached - one less step in doing a winter changeover. The Bolens style do not.

But as far as wirght goes - if they weigh the same, weight is weight.....

I picked up a pair of 70 pound weights a few years ago and added a 20 pound barbell weight inside that fit the stock C81 rims. Two of the 4 bolts hold the 20 pounders.

Bill, I actually believe the FMC weights have a big enough center to allow mounting on rim before mounting wheel to tractor, I do have a set that has too small a center on a 1257 and believe those are also Bolens, but now that I think about it, they may be Gravely? pic of 1257 weights in pic below.
