Those are not weights that’s the heavy hub when you have the 23.1-26 tires

Thought that when first looked. But tire has 34 on it and wheel is for use with a 34. Way made on outside I would guess use with special equipment of somekind.

U see the splines on the heavy hub. That goes on your axle and the current cast center rim and wheel get replaced.

This was the “heavy option” that heavy cast center with 23.1-26 rim and tire. Not sure how that’s bolted together. And yes those are heavy. I have that setup o. A swd9 and I have another set I plan on Putting on a swdr9.
Big tires are cool

Brian, nothing else to add, but welcome to YT! I guess I will say that the McCormick 9 series are very unique machines.

So the 4 bolt holes in bottom picture that face rim will match the top wheel weight holes if reversed and mounting bolts go through top wheel and thread into holes in weights? Makes sense but can't find the part number that he shows.
