Danger hear again, with the rim damaged, we cannot recomend you putting air in it at all. I have seen windows blown out of houses 80 feet from tractor tires that have blown out its rim flange. The tire must be taken off. The rim must be wire brushed with an electric rotary brush. The metal must be checked for thickness and rust pitting throughout the whole inner surface. All thin spots would weaken the rim. If only one spot is rusty, and the spot is smaller than a quarter when trimmed back to good sound metal, would I say OK to putting a fiberglass polymer repair on it. Show us pictures when it is clean and bright, then we can assess the reality of the safety of your intentions. The others are correct on your need for a valve core, but do not use it until the rim is clean checked and repaired. The valve stem tool that is needed is also a reamer rethreader and remover wrench (cost is about 3.00) JimN
