Maybe for something the size of a cub and smaller it might be feasible big not likely.

How many would it take to make a difference on a 10,000
pound tractor?!!!

" Brake rotors for front wheel weights " Absolutely go for it. I've done it ! You can reverse the wheel, so the valve stem is on the inside or cut a section out of the rotor around the valve stem. Just use a rotor that will fit inside the rim, car rotors work on 12" rims , pickup truck rotors on 14" rims and 1 ton truck rotors work on 16" rims and for large tractors, large truck rear brake drums work as well. If-in you need more weight, you can stack on additional rotors. As rotor size varies by each car/truck manufacture you will need to measure the rim and rotor size to see what fits. On ice and snow, tire chains will help as well to help stop sideways slippage. Of course most tractor manufactures had front wheel weights as an optional accessory. As they say, rich folks are thrifty and us poor folks are just cheap, as we use what ever we can scrounge that meets our needs.

How do you mount a rotor with the hub and bearing in to the
wheel?
