What style rims would be on a 1937 WC? I see spoked rims on some.

The old sales brochures I have from 34 All Crop and 35 WC timeframe show round spoke rear rims for rubber tires. Flat spoke rears if you ordered steel wheels. My 37 had round spokes rears.
The same books show both flat dish steel rims and round spoke rims with rubber tired fronts. The steel wheels for front appear to always be round spokes. Mine has steel dish wheels. I do not know if my wheel equipment is original or not but it was on it when parked. Edited by Rick of HopeIN - 23 Mar 2020 at 9:23pm |

Agree with above info. My 37 WC was near the end of production for the unstyled tractors. Serial number WC58661. Still has the round spokes. Edited by BEK - 24 Mar 2020 at 9:10am |

Rick, I would say your wheels are correct for your tractor. The 16 inch six bolt wheels started in '36 at tractor number 23529. They changed again to 16 in. five bolt in '37 at tractor number 59628.

Randy, I'm not sure if those are factory rims or not. They might be the early disc wheels which still used the 11.25 X 24 tire. Any pictures I've come across always show the early disc wheel with a wheel weight attached. The 28 inch rims came out after tractor number 81757.

The tire is a 13x24 inch tires. He is a better picture. The owner wants to know if i can find new rims for it. I might have to patch the rot in the rims.
Thanks, Randy

These guy had reasonable small rims I just bought a while back. Very helpful on the phone to give additional dimensions, etc.

You might have to repair those ones. They are deep drop center rims and pretty hard to find.
