Spring..When a young men's mind turns to rusty nuts.....

[Bob Carriere]

Thanks for all the advice....

When all is said and done wisdom prevails....

One must accept that we can't do it all ...... and I will be going to my local tractor tire dealer and use his expertise and muscles...

Lucky enough to live in a rural area, this tire shop came to my home a while back to replace a large tractor tire (16.8x28)... the chap worked alone for about 90 minutes... he removed the tire and replaced a new one with tube and calcium load without even removing the rimoff the tractor... but it did cost $450... so a small 16 in. wheel should not be a problem for him...

I will sand blast and paint myself using POR 15.......and may try to install the new tires myself .... well ....try to do one anyways.

Please remember I am still looking for 5 wheel rim nuts......
