|  Wheel Weights for Plowing?
I tried the search but could not find anything on it. I'm riging up a plow and I got to thinking wouldn't weights in the wheels help it out? I know right now i took them out for just bashing in the snow and it seems to do fine but I was wondering if anyone tried driving in the snow with the weights in?  |

weights would be good for plowing and just that. if you just bashing out in the snow you want it to be light as possible to stay above the snow but with weights you would sink. if youre on a hard surface for plowing the weights would probably help.

It would be for the paved driveway. I was thinking today maybe a nice set of narrow tires would let it dig down to the ground better for traction. Has anyone tried a set of Imex J hawgs in the snow? there not that wide and I would think they should hook up alright.

I packed the insides of my TXT axle halves with Prather stick-on lead weights.

I never thought about putting them in the axle halves... That might be a idea, usualy I just add lead sinkers into the tires.
