I was looking into adding wheel weight so that I don't have to have the 850lb boxcar wheel hanging off the 3-point all the time and noticed that jdparts doesn't give a part number for a factory wheel weight option for the 20" rim that goes with my 41-14-20 R3 equipped 4300. Any suggestions? I would probably only be looking at buying the mounting kit and starter weight, and then making my own plates for additional weight. Used prices are barely cheaper than new for stuff in this size it seems like, not sure about how shipping would work out though.
Trying to avoid loading the tires for ride quality and other reasons.

I Fluid Filled my 20 rear turf tires full on a 4720 & the fronts also for mowing steep banks :thumbsup:

It rode better plus less bounce being heavier :D

Superb Traction & no extra weight on your axles, bearings or the tractor.

It’s a win win imo but it does rob power on hills with small HP tractors.
