Ballast Double rear wheels or liquid ballast?

Again, I don't know your machine but you may be able to gain an even wider track by changing the way the "disk" is bolted to the rim. Here's an example from an old CK manual:


In that model (and also my DK) the lugs are not centered on the rim and "disk" is offset from hub to rim. That allows four different spacings between the rear wheels.

Beware that these wheels are HEAVY, especially if loaded with liquid. Be sure you have a good/safe way to maneuver the wheels if you decide to unbolt them.

Thank you ritcheyvs. I went to check the wheels again hoping I'd missed something but as you can see from this photo the only option is to turn them round since the disc is welded to the rim.
I think the nearest US equivalent to the CK2810 seems to be the CK27.

For anyone who is interested this tractor would be easy to attach duals onto. Obtain some 9.5 x 16 tires and rims, manufacture a spacer for the rim and three long bolts through the square holes in the tractor rim and you have duals. I've even seen another rim that fits snugly into the existing rim used as a spacer.
