Now that's what I call patina.....did that tractor come from the bottom of the river :lol:
I'm sure the two bolts are fine on the weights. As for the tires....I think an extra inch won't matter either. I haven't replaced a lot of tires but I think that dimension is a little forgiving. While tires are on the tractor...peek on the inside and see if it looks like you have clearance to frame and brakes and stuff?
Thanks for the picture..... it's always nice to see pics.

Yeah 10.50s will even work fine, I've got a few of that series with loaded 23x10.50 lugs that work and fit great. That beer holder needs to be modified though, will shake them up too bad
too many IH cub cadets

beer holder you guys crack me up I didn't know if the wider tires would fit on the rim I herd I needed wider rims to work but thanks for the info do you think these tires might be the orginals ? and I bought the tractor off of a guy in town about a mile away it was sitting in his yard with a honeysuckle bush growing around the tractor I asked how much and the guy said what do you have on you I said 150 he said its yours I asked if it ran he said it ran when I parked it there 4 years ago and he laughed . well I took my saw over and cut the bush out of the mower frame the deck was in a shed we took my truck hooked jumpers to it and I turned the key and it started up didn't run too good having old gas in it but I drove it home and this pic was right after I got it home here are some more pics of it lol hope you guys like it lol
