Ok here's the deal as of tonight. I talked to the machine shop guy and he said do what Steve@Adavance had posted. I was thinking along the same lines.
The wheels are 2 pieces bolted together of thin mild steel with beveled holes for the lug nuts. Tires are foam filled. odd ball size of 24" OD. 5 on 5.5 hubs.
The wheels do NOT fit very tight to the hubs, so that's placing extra load on the studs.
So I do mow steep uneven hill sides and cow trails around them. If this mower wasn't built to hold up to that then I am sorry, Rhino should have let me know that up front in there brochures.
Saved the best part for last, got a call from the dealer, Rhino will send out a new IMPROVED wheel assy. under warranty, no charge to me. I was surprised. I'll be looking at it closely and MAYBE post an up date so those that responded will know what happened.
Mean time I plan on getting a new center made so that I have a spare. Dealer thinks they will be told to trash the old wheel save sending it back.

The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
