Yes I need new rims but I am cheep and these tires still have a little life left in them. When the tires just have to be replaced I will buy mounted tires on new rims. This is how I made due till then............

So I took the tire off the rim.
The more I tried to grind out or weld up the bad spot the worse it got. So I resorted to welding in a new piece of steel; forming it to the rim shape and grinding edges smooth.

Then I cut up the old tube and stuck it to the rim with spray adhesive.

Mounted the tire and installer on tractor. On to next project getting steering box repaired.
