Front Wheel Options 2210D

[kzack]

I have rust / rot developing on one of the front wheels of my 2210D. I see that hoye has them for about $100. Where else could I find them for sale? What other options are there, like from other tractors or vehicles?

Thanks, Keith

If its still holds air a possibility would be to have the tire taken off and sand blast the wheel good inside and out and repaint it just a thought just all depends how it looks?

The main problem is rot at the valve stem hole that creates sharp edges. I put a washer around the valve stem on the tube and that's working for now. I did think to have the tire taken off, but I'm afraid of just how bad the rim may be. I could have someone weld in material around the hole if the rest of the wheel isn't too bad.

Thanks, Keith

Yeah no way to tell unless its torn down but welding a washer in would work fine I think if the wheel is still decent. :thumbsup:

If the rest of the wheel is in good enough condition, weld up the old stem hole and drill a new hole in the wheel. Debur and smooth with emery cloth or fine sandpaper and be good to go.
