Set of 2 Lawn Mower Rear Drive Wheels Compatible with Honda HRN216 Walk Behind Lawn Mower - Replaces 42710-VR8-N00ZA - 8 Inch

What It Is

This is a set of two 8-inch rear drive wheels for the Honda HRN216 walk-behind lawn mower. They replace the OEM Honda part 42710-VR8-N00ZA and are designed for self-propelled models where the rear wheels provide traction.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower is a Honda HRN216 model (check the model tag under the seat or on the frame). These wheels are not compatible with older HRX, HRR, or HRC series mowers. Measure the wheel hub diameter (typically 3/4-inch) and bolt pattern (usually 4-bolt, 4-inch spacing). The tire size is 8 inches outer diameter, 2.5 inches wide. If your mower uses a different hub or axle design (e.g., keyed shaft vs. pin drive), these will not fit. OEM part number 42710-VR8-N00ZA is the direct Honda reference; this set is an aftermarket replacement.

Key Things to Know

• Build quality: These are nylon/plastic wheels with rubber tires—lighter than OEM cast-iron hubs but durable for residential use. May wear faster on rough terrain.
• Installation: Simple swap—remove the old wheel’s retaining clip or bolt, slide off, install new wheel, and secure. No special tools needed.
• Common gotcha: The hub may need a small washer or spacer if there’s lateral play after installation. Check your axle shaft for wear before mounting.
• Tread pattern: Similar to OEM for decent traction on grass, but not aggressive enough for steep slopes or mud.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Honda HRN216 and need a budget-friendly, direct-fit replacement for worn or broken rear wheels, this set is a solid value at $26.99 with strong user reviews. It’s best for light to moderate residential mowing on flat to gentle terrain. For heavy commercial use or rough conditions, consider OEM wheels for longer life.
