@Thomas5060 did you get sorted with wheels or weights for the 265? There's a pair of 13.6x38 pavt wheels for sale in Ballyclare if they're any use to you.

He’s actually not fussed about that anymore lol but one thing I do want to buy between now and July is a set of wide front tyres and rims for it, she is our topping tractor and she floats well apart from the fronts dropping in

Apologies if I have mis read this post in some way. But if you need the grip for ploughing why not just put more weight on the front weight frame, or even extend the front frame forwards to make any such ballast more effective as the tractor draft control tries to transfer all that weight onto the rear wheels?

What size of plough are you trying to pull, if it doesn't need front end weight to hold the front down when being lifted it cant be very big/heavy so 4 wd tractor should be able to plough with your tyres as is.
