Yes you are going to need one of these Krys... 1 year RedSquare support - RedSquare Support - RedSquare Wheel Horse Forum Pull the spindle off the axle, clean it up and get us a pic of that. Measure the length of the spindle that the rim sets on fron the welded washer out. . I 've got parts too if Kev doesn't Clean around this grease fitting and we'll have you grease it when she goes back together. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can send you my 8’s but the tires are junk.. Yes, they are 6". I'm wondering if that's why the tires were rubbing on the tie rod. Will I need to take the wheels and tires to a tire shop to get them on the rims, or is that something I'm able to do with my handy screw driver and socket set? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It ain't fun ! But you can change the tires at home with a couple of large screw drivers, once you get the bead to break. It may be less frustrating to take them to a shop. In my area it cost about $10 to $15 per tire to have them changed. Note: if Kevin sends you some 8" rims your 6" tires will not fit on them. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure but I think the rims and tires would fit but nothing else would fit your tractor. You would probably be beter off with the 8" rims like @pullstart has and new thre rib tires. The spindles you have are for 8" rims. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No those rims would not work... take the rims Kev is offering. This is what they would look like on your tractor with the very affordable tri ribs Dan mentioned, less the weights of course, and I think they would do well for how you are working the tractor. These are the ones I favor but 85 Georges a piece. Someday when I am man enough to have a C-160 these are what she'll get dang the cost.
