Rear tractor rims

toolz · Oct 7, 2015

Asked this on the Case forum, but no answers. Brand doesn't matter, but I have a 160 hp Case that has 12 wheel clamps per rim. I bought bigger tires and rims (580/70R-38) that were on a Deere, and only two of the drive lugs on the Deere rims line up with my wheel clamps. Do you think this will be a problem?

I expect only if you try to pull something. Then the centers will turn while the rims-tires stay put.

I don't think it will be a problem. Most of my tractors only have a couple of what I call rim bumps near the wheel clamps. If you have the
nuts tight it will work.

A tractor of that size should have more than two drive lugs . I have a IH 450 with 15.5 38s and one wheel has only two lugs and I had trouble with wedges pulling through the drive lugs. The other rim has four drive lugs and have had no problems with it.

I tightened them about a half turn before the bolts broke! I'll have it on a plow this weekend, so wish me luck.
