Not sure if that's directed at me or not but it wouldn't for me since I keep the front plow blade on all winter.

Sorry, it was just for general information on how a set of weights can be added to a BX for those who mentioned the need for added weight on the front and didn't want a FEL etc. on it.

With the criteria your working with, I would go with Rimguard in the rears and spacers. You can put the spacers on, just follow the directions.

Since we don't know where he lives (unless he posted it and I didn't see it) we have no idea if he can even get Rimguard. I live in SC TN. The closest RG dealer to me - according to them - is south KY.

If he's in FL, forget it. If he's in Canada, NY, MN ND or anywhere else in the Siberian North, then yes.

Well today I went "rim guard hunting". So far a big disappointment. Western Wisconsin and northetn IA are farm country areas. Yet the Menards and Home Depots don't care it . . faur enough. How about Farm & Fleet . . Nope. Farm supplies in upper Iowa . . Not so fare. How about the other franchise farm & and home super stores like Thiesen's . . . nope. Well surely Tractor Supply . . . nope. So far ive checked 9 places (none a duplicate) . . Nothing.

Lots of people used windshield washer fluid... it won't freeze and sometimes on sale.

I foamed filled my tires to eliminate flats and add weight...

E-mail them, they'll tell you where the closest dealer is: Rim Guard - Liquid Tire Ballast

Good luck.
