wheel weights????

[EJD]

Hello out there - some opinions please.

For the past 9 years I've had a 16 hp kubota with a rear snowblower. In addition, I had the rear wheels loaded and the blower worked just fine. Three knee surguries on my right knee later - turning in my seat to go in reverse to clean the snow from my one half mile driveway has reached its end.
I just purchased a JD 2320 with a front mounted blower. As before, I plan to have the rear tires loaded and I'm concerned as to whether or not the loaded tires would be enough weight on the ground or should I get wheel weights as well. I opted for not getting the ballast box. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
EJ

I like too think the loaded tires is a great start and a box blade on back could not hurt. I bought wheel weights because thorn trees are way to hard on tires and I did not want to replace the fluid$. Oh I do not have a snow blower so I really do not know how much weight you need just know how exspensive the wheel weights were.
