Once you get the plow set up correctly, and lube all the grease fitting liberally, go a round or two with it set shallow, and run as fast as you can (fourth gear compared to third) to get the bottoms shined up, stop often & clean the dirt from the shares with a stiff putty knife, once dirt does not stick to the shares you have it shined up & ready to do some good work, it will then pull much easier.
I beleive you will do just fine with a single wheel weight on each side & use the tires you have now, the trick is to get the plow set up for the conditions. My experience has been most plow days are set way in advance with little consideration for soil conditions. This is common and you just have to learn to do the best you can with what you have to work with.
ps. Sorry Joe, looks like we posted our replies at exactly the same time, great minds think alike.
