The present snowplow wheel kit converts a standard snowplow for use on unimproved surfaces. The snowplow wheel kit is designed to support the weight of the snowplow blade on swiveling wheel assemblies which are mounted to the rear of the snowplow blade and have the ability to turn in all directions. The tires ride on top of the unimproved surface, allowing the edge of the snowplow blade to travel just above the ground surface, thus removing the snow without the blade coming in direct contact with the soft underlying surface. The swivel feature of the wheel assemblies allows the blade to travel over the surface smoothly while maintaining the desired height of the blade edge from the surface. In addition, this feature allows for the plow blade to be fully functional when “back-plowing”, using the rear of the plow blade to drag snow while the vehicle is moving rearward.
