JD 2520
So I just got a Good deal on a complete set front and rear R3 Turf tires and wheels for my JD2520 in Mint condition for $800. I have Loaded R4s and was wondering if anyone has some tips on removing the Heavy loaded R4s. Thanks By the way how heavy do you think they are my guess is 300#

Where do you plan to move them to?

R4's balance upright pretty well, and I had no problem rolling them around (loaded) by myself when I switched them, and again when I added spacers on each of back wheels.

Once you have the tires switched, then move them with your FEL.

Thank You for the help I don't feel like it will be a problem now. Looks like the rears will be 235.4 plus not as bad as I thought. Thanks Again

I've moved loaded 16.9-28s on the 2030, but have not had a reason to tackle the 18.4-34s on the 6415 and hope I never do. Your R4s should be a piece of cake.

Thanks again Just finished and yes it was a piece of cake no problem at all. I was concerned with the loaded tires but it was not a issue.

A pump and barrels. Then get rid of that aggressive corroding salt and go with dry tires and cast weights, windshield washer fluid or beet juice.

How did you possibly construe that p0peye's loaded tires had CaCl in them?? I know you hate liquid ballast but COME ON.
