E3 rear rims.

Hello folks, so far Phil Heisey has been a HUGE help on parts for my project, He actually had just about everything I need in stock, and is still working on a rather large list of parts I reciently sent him. I am in search of a couple things though, I am still in search of rear rims, here is a link to some but Im not 100% certain that these are the correct rims for my tractor or not.

here are 12x38 but I want to use the original 11.2x38 tires so I would guess I need 10x38? or 11x38 rims?

I am also interested in these Do they look correct? if so where could I purchase the 8 cast loops to weld or rivet on? These also make it rather affordable.

Any help would be great!
 
Gene"s recycling has a lot of almost complete cockshutt 30 and E3 tractors and are very good to deal with. 419-426-6452
 
Chris,
the original rims on my 1948 CK 30 measure only 9 inches wide with the tires off, that is the inside measurement from bead lip to bead lip. I installed new 11.2 x 38 rear tires on them and they fit real nice. Actually, the rims had 12.4x38 tires on them and they fit nice too. The key measurement is not the total width of the rim, but the width between the lips where the tire edges go, if that makes sense.
 
Thanks for the help and input, I did try genes a while back and they did not have any good rims. So I will go with 10x38 (I haven't noticed any 9x38s. Mine is a 1950 and has the newer flat center rims, and the loops are riveted to the flat portion not on an angle like the earlier wheels (if that makes sense) the thing is I want to make sure there aren't different heights in the lip area hate to order them and find that the hubs won't fit because the small diameter is too small or large. Do any of the links I posted look correct?
 
Chris,
I have both style rims you describe, the flat center style and the angle center style, both for the adjustable wheels. I"m 99 per cent sure the center piece of the wheel will fit both, but I will double check. Can"t do it today, will try and find time tomorrow.
