MudSmith Gauge Wheel

Open spoked gauge wheels are great for preventing wheels from plugging up between disc openers. Why do we only have 3″ gauge wheels and not 4.5″ on our site? We are big fans of using 3″ gauge wheels due to ride quality. Wider gauge wheels may roll up over more clods of soil and allow a gap between the wheel and sidewall. By preventing sidewall lift, we are able to keep the seed in the trench increasing consistency in emergence and population.
