wheel weight on the cheap

[powerking 0]

I just joined and was curious of what you all thought of my trial of loading drive tires with mason sand. Sounds kinda dumb I know but for a buck I can load an ag-tread tire in about 15 mins. adding about 60 to 70 lbs per tire. I just broke down one bead and filled the tire as full as I could get it and cleaned off any sand so the bead could reseat properley and reinflated it. I currentley have my B-80 loaded this way and my 877 with great results. We live in an old church and have been tiling and back filling with the B-80. I never have liked calcium ballast and can quickley remove the sand with a shopvac if I wanted. Love all the great topics and info from you guys!! :WRS:

:WRS: Interesting idea...I would just wonder about the sand freezing if you live in that kind of climate. :hide:

:hide: something else thats cheap and won't freeze is winsheild washer fliud. but the sand sound neat. I would bet the inside on those wheels will look like brand new real fast!

:) Yes I believe you do know me. I bought the 877 from you a month or so ago. You said to join RedSquare and here I am. Awesome tractor you sold me by the way, it's my favorite so far. Let me know if you want to go to Glens Surpluss to find Wheel Horse stuff... :WRS:
