When you get your forms ready,take them to your local ready mix company and ask them to pour them full when they have some waste concrete. I drive ready mix and we dump probably 10 yards a week is a waste pit . We have made several parking curbs and anchor weights for folks for free.I would pour directly into the cast wheel center,the way I would do it is, take the wheel/rim off the tractor so you can lay it flat and line the center with plastic,have the mounting bolts already in place.Use a cardboard tube for the center hole and maybe a cardboard ring around the rim. Be creative. I have alot of concrete left over after jobs that I take home and pour sidewalks and who knows what. Be prepared for your concrete to be fairly wet if you want it free. Oh yea, tips are always appreciated.Even a 12 pack at quitting time.
