Welding the centers isn't too bad, run a straight edge across the rim and measure to the four corners of the center, once you get them all the same tack them and double check the measurements. Oh, be sure the three point rockshaft isn't hitting the fuel tank in the full down position, I had some small issues with that.
Thanks for the measurement on the rear. That sounds like it's right where I want to be. I will also have to watch out for that issue you had with tank clearance.

I also have a new dash I have to get installed. I bought it last winter and just never got around to getting it on. Should be an easy job once I get the steering wheel off.

The main reason I went with new wheels is so I can keep my turfs and chains mounted for winter use. I already have those loaded and I really didn't want to break them down.
