[quote="BarnyardEngineering"](quoted from post at 08:53:12 08/11/21) Please remember that your tractor is not a bulldozer or a battering ram. Otherwise you will be replacing rims on a regular basis. It takes a LOT of abuse to bend a rim.
What's online is irrelevant. What's important is what you have on YOUR tractor. The bent rim should not preclude you from reading the tire size off the sidewall, and even if somehow the tire turned to dust when the rim bent, you have the other tire to reference.
Rims are not referenced by the tire size, by the way. Rims are sized by width and diameter, which is usually stamped into the rim.[/quote]
I agree it is not a bulldozer or battering ram and I am actually pretty careful with it. I was out mowing fields that have been leased out to people for the last 30 years.

I hit said hole that was about a foot wide and almost that deep, which is what bent the rim. The stamp on the rim is 14x7 Looks like it has a Pilot hole of 4 5/8 with the bolt pattern being 3 1/4.

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
