Are you concerned about handling them? I just installed a set of those on my L2501 with the R14 so they should be about the same weight. I asked here and was able to do it by myself. They were not bad at all to keep upright and roll forward. I am 68 and not as strong as I used to be so I asked here too. Was only hampered by not being able to rotate hub when out of gear as I have a DT not the HST. After words I described it and someone suggested maybe it was in 4wd and it was! I will see if I can find the thread I wrote. It was only about a month ago.

That is my concern, thanks for the reply and the link. You give me more confidence that I can handle them!Installing rear spacers on L2501
I have received my spacers and getting ready to install so I can use chains. I am wondering if anyone could offer experience with handling the rear 15 x 19.5 loaded R14 tires. Are they too much for one guy to handle working slowly and carefully. Does the weight become more than you can control...
I think I copied this right!

8.33 lbs. per gallon is the correct weight for water!Maybe this will help
Tire Fill Tools | Rim Guard
Find out how many gallons of beet juice tire ballast you need in your tires. Our Tire Fill Tool has data for over 2,200 different tire sizes.
enter you tire size in the interactive tire fill tool and it will give you the gallons
For your tire its either 24 or 29 gallons in them multiply that by the 7.6 lbs for winshield washer fluid or 8.6 for water and you will have the approximate weight for the fluid.
i will just use 29 gallons as worst case scenario that makes 220 lbs just for liquid plus the 201 for tire thats 421lbs is minimum weight. i couldnt find a rim weight so total weight is probally more than 500lbs.
