Rake gauge wheels for my rake

$230 US dollars
didn't shop around, just went to the local dealer foaming at the mouth cus I wanted to finish my driveway right away!

This may be a stupid question but I thought I would ask. I know the gauge wheels help in leveling roads, etc but do they also assist in moving the beast around? I don't have wheels because I have lots of hills and I haven't seen that I needed them but if they also assist in maneuvering I might consider them.

Thanks.

MAJMAC392,
In my first set of photos you can see the support stand with a wheel that I made for moving the rake around. This allows me to move the rake sideways thru a doorway for storage that I can't get the tractor in. The wheels without the stand make it easier for hooking up the rake to the tractor as well. You just have to set the wheels at their lowest stetting before removing it from the tractor.
