wow
always alot of confusion on the Mennonites and amish.

there are many sects so you can't lump them into any category.

Around north central Indiana all "Mennonite" use regular tractors. Some Amish still are not allowed to use tractors other than maybe grinding corn and filling silo. The amish here that do have tractors, most still use steel wheeled tractors BUT. the somehow stretch (or fab the steel wheel inside the tire) a regular tractor tire over the steel. they even do that for hay wagons and i've seen a skid loader or 2 that way.
-some can not have tractors but can have skid loaders so they drive them everywhere. See many on busy highways pulling 1 or 2 hay wagons backwards. even saw one pulling 2 wagons making a left turn down a blind hill a few weeks ago.

Who makes them..?? any number of the hundred amish black-smith/steel fab shops scattered around the state. sometimes you see them at an auction here and there. and a junk yard or 2

there is quite a variety of them too. some fab them to a cast wheel centre and some go from the axle out
