I have a BX2360 w/ RCK60B23BX MMM and my Anti Scalp wheels seem to break off or come loose ( confirmed broken last time). I Know they should not usually touch the ground but I have a very challenging yard and them not wearing is not an option. The first set I don't now... the second set the bolt broke at the end of shoulder. Is there anything that will fit and work similarly but swivel?
Thanks Ken

WOW you must have hammered something pretty hard to brake the bolt off,, My OL cuts with it as low as it will go and if she cant see the wroms arses then shes not happy so I now about the wheels.
Now there was a post a few years back Im sure someone can find it, where a guy machined out the centers of the wheels and pressed in,, I think bronze bushings,, that went over the shaft bolts,, that would help a lot for wearing out the center of the wheels,, Maybe slowing down a little bit might help,, Im doing 5 1/2 acres and still have the OEM wheels,, had to weld the wheel brackets on once or twice though

Sounds to me like you need to get some dirt and start filling in the low spots so the high spots stop damaging your wheels!

If you get the damage from cresting hillocks all the time, approach them at more of an angle or raise the deck just before you crest or go down. Your grass will thank you also.

I would think technique changes might overcome the issue altogether but usually that and some minor landscape grading changes will likely alleviate any issues you have but I'd have to see pictures of what your landscape is like...
