I recently cleaned all the caked-on grease and dirt off the round spoke front rims for my F-20, and discovered that about half of the spokes on each rim have been welded where the spoke goes into the center hub. Also, most of those welds have cracked... it looks like the cracks are right along the centerline of the welds. Which leads me to a few questions:
1. Are these rims prone to breaking spokes?
2. If not, just how badly would the tractor need to be abused to do this?
3. Is it possible to successfully weld these rims? In other words, are these just crappy welds?
