Used Kubota wheels????

[shinnlinger]

Hi, THe front wheels on my '85 Kubota L2850 are getting rusty and now chafe the tubes so they don't last very long. Tried some wire brush action but might be time for some new wheels.

I am sure New Kubota wheels are way more than I want to pay. Does anyone know if there is a generic steel replacement or a place to by used wheels?

they are 7-16 ag tires with 6 on about 6 and 3-32nds bolt pattern. Part number is L8801.

THanks.

I had a similar problem with rims and I used a a flap wheel on all the areas I could get to then put a wire wheel on the angle grinder and really polished the heck out of them. I was even worried about the area around the valve stems because they seemed to be getting very thin and I built that up with my mig and ground it back down. Then primed and repainted with a quality rattle can paint, being careful to take my time. Turned out very well.
