I believe it is aftermarket. Targeted for McCormick-Deering / international. The 3 bolt hub cap is used on F20 and 10-20 tractors. Hs and Ms too. Probably for steel to rubber conversion.

I thought it was made by F H, but don't have confirmation

Very nice. The color looks right for AC. It reminds me of Oliver.

That is a French & Hecht 'convertible' wheel.  It could be used with a narrow steel bladed rim, a larger round flat rim, a Dayton type wheel rim with wedge clamps, or a rim with a tab-type clamp.  They could also be used on towed implements with a bolted-on ring gear, but I've never seen that derangement.

These are most frequently found on steel-wheel green tractors, and red tractors all of vintage prior to 1939 or so.  I believe these wheels came out of the F&H foundry in Davenport, Iowa, and were probably shipped just across the railroad deck of the Government Bridge to the IH and JD facilities in Moline.

Thank you DK for the good info.  I will leave them on the tractor as they do look neat.
