The wheel weights really help. I'm getting the CaCl fluid out of my tires and going with three sets of cast iron weights. The fluid was eating up the whole valve stem (in the new, made in Korea tubes) in a couple years. If the weight of the bale is picking up the back of the tractor, you might need more than 300#. That's a little too close to the edge for for my tastes. I went to our local salvage yard and got the full circle weights for $100 a set. If you go that way, some of the weights have mounting holes that just fit a 3/4" bolt, and some have holes that are about 7/8". Try to get the weights with the larger holes. They are much easier to get mounted. Both types have the 6818 D part number.
