IIRC, the smaller weights were considered standard size, and nominal 73 lbs, and the larger ones were optional size at nominal 102 lbs. Remember as a kid, you'd say "I can put those on"- then once you could, it became your permanent job LOL. Then gramps said, set 'er up for plowing, I'll be back in a while- which meant blowing the wheels out from 60" to 84" centers. Me at 12, and the old 8N with a Wagner loader, the little IH clamp bolt wrench & 4' of pipe. Actually, the rears were easier than the fronts
