C-161 New Wheel Questions

Recommended Posts

WildmanC120

So I have decided I should just get new wheels for my C-161, and leave the old wheels as they are with the old turfs and chains etc for winter.  I already have new tires but I want to get the same size wheels as I have already.  I am not sure which rear wheels are correct. 

 

I think these are correct for the front.

Front Wheel

 

Rear wheel choices:

4" backspacing

6" backspacing

Thank you. So I guess none of those will work.

 

Are those front wheels OK?

Buy the blanks and weld them where you want. I needed 10" wides for my g/f loader 520. Once I figured where they went, couple zaps with the welder and done!!

I don't have a welder or a garage.  I have a small shed and typically work outside.  I just want standard wheel horse size wheels.  Shouldn't be too hard to come by.

Well, there you go. Man from Windsor drives a couple of hours to the Schenectady area and meets Moreau who drive south a bit for a free meal. Hands over wheels and tires. DOne and bellies full. Who could ask for more. Admire the Camino before you go :). As for me, cheap date. A good BBQ meal is all I need.

My priority is to get out of this hostile crap hole of a state and move to the Vermont border where I can live free and still get to work.

I appreciate the offer but we may be a little too far apart to be cost effective for either of us unfortunately.

I hear ya! Escaped NJ in 1998 - couldn't afford 3 kids there. GA continues to be a little slice of heaven. No offense to you NJ'ites. Was my home for my first 37 years!
