Re: Combine wheel weights
That is a "Tractor Tube " that will hold calcium . How heavy were they when you got them? Those oversized tire would hold a lot 13.5 lbs. per Imperial Gallon / 11.86 lbs per US Gallon. Based on the chart I am going to guess at 200 lbs plus rim, tire and wheel weights = +/- 400 lbs each side
Thats My guess if they are filled to 80% (which is what is done around here ) and a strong mix of CC being in norther states . I am sure traction will Not be an issue for you .
Food for thought .

Re: Combine wheel weights
David, I’m not sure how much they weighed when I purchased them. I got them at an unbelievable price, so I didn’t ask a lot if questions. They were on a Kubota I was told and the seller sold the tractor with turf tires on the rear and the person buying it didn’t want the ags. I do remember when I slid them out of my pickup one of them tipped over on its side. I couldn’t pick it up and had to put a wedge under it then slid a strap under and through the rim hole. The used the portable crane to upright it. Since then I was very careful in rolling them. Harry
