I would like to put some larger(wider) front wheels on my Model B. Does anyone know what make automotive wheels are a direct bolt on replacement? Thanks in advance for the help.--Gary

It is not scientific, but several years ago I needed to replace a wheel in a hurry. I put a small amount of grease on the lugs and pressed a piece of notebook paper against the them. I measured the diameter of the center hole, cut out the holes for the lug nuts and went to the local auto junk yard. Placing the paper against the wheels I was able to match the holes in the paper with the holes in the wheels at the junk yard. I bought two mini spares with wheels (less than $25.00 for both) Had to ream out lug holes only slightly. Tires and wheels are still on the tractor but I will probably go back to originals one day. Think these were off older full sized Ford.

Gary, I have a formula for determining the bolt-circle of five lug wheels that I got out of a hot rod magazine some time ago. Once the bolt-circle dimension is known, I refer to a chart I have that cross references the bolt-circle diameter to makes & models of automobiles. All I need is the dimension between the center of the first and third bolt hole. For example, if the measurement is 4-1/4", the bolt circle is 4-1/2" which is that most commonly used by Ford & Mopar on their rear wheel drive cars. Seems kind of complicated, but it works. Maybe somebody out there has a better way? When selecting a wheel you should also consider the center hole diameter to be sure it fits over the hub. Also, consider the offset of the wheel. Too much negative offset and it will hit your spindle; too much positive offset and it will put undo strain on the spindles and wheel bearings. Brian G.

I have a set but I do not know what they came off of. They were on a "B" when I bought it.
