If your going to use them on the rears of a tractor it's going to beat the crud out of you and the tractor. I have a set of those on the front of my L3450, they work great on the front.

OK finally got the adapter plates finished and welded in place and tires/wheels mounted on the tractor...

The may beat ya up a little I haven't noticed to much of a change myself... But they diff. Didn't beat up my wallet

I did buy the tires with all the orange paint on them I think the power washer will remove it

That wouldn't be a built 300ci 6 with Cleveland head would it???

Dang, good luck getting it off. Looks like someone let their 5 year old help them paint the wheels.

Soft wire brush on a grinder will do. They are filled tires so it's not like you can pop them!

Easiest solution would probably be just citrus cleaner soak.

Ya the company I bought them off of had them stacked 2 per pallet orange side down...weighing in at hundreds of pounds each I didn't bother trying to flip one over. And in fortune for me the offset on the wheel put the orange side out on my application.. But I have test them out several times this week no problems or issues and it goes like a tank...very happy
