sparrow legs Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 tryed some new boots on her today, what do you think? to fix on properly and hubs and wheel weights to paint and fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 nice i tried those a while back but thought they were to big, so went with the older britains wheels, got a pic somewhere of her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow legs Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 dont remember seen that thread, i think they look ok, ive only fitted them to make it a bit different to sell on (eh up 4c, you said you would buy it if i changed the wheels) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 it makes a huge differenc to the origonals i have to say mate, have you done the hitch to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Much... much better Mike... why oh why couldn't they put those wheels on in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Would be even better with those wheels on duals... coud you "cut the centres" out of the second set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 they did get the basic hub type right but deff not the size and tyre size right thats for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 they did get the basic hub type right but deff not the size and tyre size right thats for sure But the 1800 wheels were "spot on" Sean... I reckon most of them would have run duals... even in the UK \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 i personally thought they awere to wide mate, the ones mike has fitted look far better width wise, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I agree Sean... I reckon those wheels of Mike's are spot on... are they 6290 wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow legs Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 yes they are 6290 wheels and thanks for the positive comments have now got red hubs fitted in the centres, not selling her now did think of duels but looks ok as it is to save the expence of 4 more wheels (unless anyone has some cheep?) she will be been sent on a short holiday to beverely to get her hitch sorted once ive booked her in i feel it has really improved a lacking model, its 110% in detail but the wheels let it down. didnt realise the original centres are real cast till i took the tyres off, its much lighter now i guess the real tractor would have 13.4r36s fitted and the ones ive put on will be about 18.4r38s? may make some to sell, do you think there would be any interest?
