I have a 1977 Ford 4100 tractor with 28" power adjust rims. the tires are loaded but I still feel additional weight would be beneficial. What wheel weights will work with these wheels? Seem to have trouble finding anything. I also have a 4400 industrial with 24" wheels that could probably use some weights also.

Do you have a loader on it?

What you want is a set of pie weights. They come in different weights, but they all attach to a disc which bolts onto the rear hub with special "nuts" that the disc mounts on, and come with a full set. They are not readily available but they come up regularly on Craig's list and eBay. Be aware of the need for the special "nuts". Thanks for calling the rims "power adjust" and not "spin-out" and welcome to YT.

A 4100 has 8 on 8" lug pattern on the rear
wheels. The only pie weights I've ever seen
- or heard of - were made for 8 on 6" lug
pattern. So pie weights will not fit your
tractor.

Unfortunately pie weights won't fit your tractor.
4100 is basically the same as a 4600SU but has a smaller engine, they have the wet brake planetary rear axle that has a larger bolt pattern for the wheels like on larger 5600 thru 7600 models.
Ag weights for the smaller 24-28 inch wheels are hard to find in my area, have better luck finding the larger industrial weights.
I only run weights on my loader tractor, don't do much tillage and tractors see a good amount of road miles going between farms, loaded tires and wheel weights increases the rate of tire wear when driven on hard surface.
Yeah- Seem to be hard to find here also. Can find larger ones but not ones to fit mine. My tractors see very little road time so thats not really a concern for me. Its not a major problem- just thought the added weight might come in handy for a little extra traction. Maybe something will turn up at some point.
