Thanks to everybody who responded. First, being from Kentucky, we weren't taught such mathematics in the 5th grade. And besides that, it has been many years since I eventually was taught the theory of pi. Therefore when challenged, I am not too proud to publicly admit my ignorance and seek the help of those more learned, than I. As for the environment and lead......lead is a naturally occurring mineral within the upper strata of the Earth's crust. I would guess it has been present for at least a few billion years, if not longer. It is actually a rather innocuous substance unless heated to the point of vaporization (900+ degrees F) or rendered into dust and then inhaled. Obviously, iron/steel wheel weights are superior structurally and if money wasn't an issue for me, I'd just lay out about $500 for a thousand pounds of used rear weights and be done with it. Concerning how the weights would be formed/molded, yes, they would be poured about one inch thick and stacked. My tractor has flanged axles, so no center hole is needed. The weights would just have to be removed in order to unbolt the wheel in case of a flat tire, etc. Thanks again.
