I bought two Farmall Hs for parts the other day. One has flat spoked rims and rubber tires. They are 38 inch rims. Does anyone know if these could be original? I was thinking they may be from an F series. Would the axles be the same?  |

Sounds like cutoff's to me. When rubber became more popular than steel wheels farmers would cut the outer edge of the rim off and would replace it with a rim and tire. They were also lighter than the cast wheels and often you will see them in tractor pulls as an alternative to pressed steel rims. I guess they look something like this.  |

Yeah, they look very similar to those rims. Thanks for the information and the pic. Are they worth anything? Would people who pull be interested in that sort of thing? I haven't got much use for lighter rims.

I haven't got much use for lighter rims. They're worth the story behind them if there is one. If it was me and I wasn't doing any heavy pulling (like plowing discing etc.) I would just leave them on it. |
