Actually, my war year tractor did come on rear steel. The story behind these particular wheels is that the tractor was shipped and used on steel for several years during the war, and the owner upgraded tractors. The guy who gave it to me (Ira) and his father went to buy it from the dealer in '51, but insisted they put rubber on it. So, the dealer took the steel off and replaced it with a regular rubber/rim/cast set up. The wheels were stuck in the back of a barn since no one wanted them. Years later when Ira went back home for a class reunion he was talking to a very good friend of his who was the nephew of the dealer. Tractors came up in the conversation, and Ira found out the wheels were still in the barn, so he bought them. He blasted them and primed them, and stored them inside, but never used them. Now I have them. They haven't been on a tractor since they were taken off, and they were only used a couple years.
