The Mower Shop Honda HRX217 Wheel Set — 4-Piece Front & Rear Replacement Wheels with Date-of-Service Decal

This kit from The Mower Shop supplies a matched pair of genuine-style rear wheels (42710-VH7-010ZA) and front wheels (44710-VH7-010ZA) designed to restore handling and stability to Honda HRX217 lawnmowers.

If your HRX217 is pulling, wandering, or the wheels are cracked and worn, replacing all four wheels with a matched set is the fastest way to bring back predictable steering and even cutting height. This complete wheel set is specified for Honda HRX217-series machines and replaces prior part numbers for both front and rear positions. The package also includes a handy Date of Service decal so you can quickly mark when the change was made for future maintenance planning.

What exactly comes in the wheel set and which parts are replaced?

The kit contains two rear wheels and two front wheels sized and fitted for the HRX217 line. Each wheel corresponds to a specific Honda part number so installation fits like the originals.

• Two rear wheels — part number 42710-VH7-010ZA (replaces older rear part numbers)
• Two front wheels — part number 44710-VH7-010ZA (replaces older front part numbers)
• Includes The Mower Shop Date of Service decal for tracking maintenance
• Sold as a complete four-wheel kit — ready to install

How will new wheels affect mower performance on uneven lawns?

Fresh wheels restore consistent wheel diameter and tread profile, which helps maintain even cutting height and improves directional control across bumps and slopes. Replacing worn wheels reduces wobble and helps the deck track true behind the mower.

• Repaired wheel diameter prevents low spots in turf cutting
• Improved tread reduces slipping on inclines and wet grass
• Matched front and rear wheels keep the deck level and steady

Are these wheels compatible and easy to install?

Yes. These wheels are manufactured to match the OEM fitment for Honda HRX217 models and use the same mounting points and axle dimensions. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with routine mower maintenance.

• OEM-style sizing for bolt-on replacement — no custom modifications
• Fits Honda HRX217 series models that use the listed part numbers
• Simple swap: remove old wheels, mount replacements, torque per mower manual

What tools or accessories should I have on hand before replacing the wheels?

Basic hand tools are sufficient for the job; a socket set and a torque wrench make the process faster and ensure proper fastener tightness. Keep the mower on a flat surface and follow safety steps in your owner’s manual.

• Socket wrench set (sizes vary by mower fastener)
• Torque wrench to follow OEM torque specs
• Wheel cleaner or grease for hub contact points if needed
• Date of Service decal included to mark the replacement date
