2-85 rims and weights

wmthrower · Sep 17, 2010

I'm thinking that I'll be needing some new rims and tires in a year or two for this 2-85 I picked up. Calcium is working on them I think. Am thinking about not going with loaded tires when I put new rubber on it. What is the availability of rear weights for this old gal.
How about rims if I need them? She's wearing 18.4-38's now

Rear rims can be picked up from just about any tire dealer, Titan wheel and Unverferth make that style wheel. Plus then the dealer can put them on when he puts the tires on. Wheel weights are the same as Oliver. Lots around

Have your tire look into a product called Rim-Guard, (www.rimguard.biz). It's derived from sugar beets and is non toxic, and non corrosive and weighs about the same as water/chloride solution. 18.4X38 hold over 1000 lbs of liquid ballast (of either type) which is a LOT of cast weights.
