Recently saw an F w/hard rubber wheel(badly wheathered and powdered-up in my hand) and my recollection of my grandmothers tractor is that it had a hard maple rim. The wheel I have on the '25-'27? F has a hollow tubular rim ( about 13/16 dia. cross section) made from 2 pieces of sheet steel, w/ 2 seams, 1 around the inside & 1 around the the outside. The 4 spoke spider is draw-formed from 1/8" sheet steel and is butt-welded to the rim on the inside seam. Hub appears to be cast w/ 6 tooth spline for shaft and is riveted to spider w/ 8 rivets. Spline and shaft are badly worn. My thought is that when grabbing the wheel, the rim seems rather small and would be hard to get a good grip. Does anyone have any ideas about whether this wheel might have been covered with something during it's 1s't life. Thanks for your thoughts! FL
