My interpretation of the IH parts manuals is that the rim size be no more than 1 inch smaller than the tread width, meaning for a 13.6-38 (12-38 old designation) a 11 inch is adequate, a 12 inch is also ok. My 460 had 15.5's on 12 inch rims, when I finish it I am likely going to use 14.9's, it may have come with 13.6's or equivalent. Because of what I have read on this forum I was surprised to find the 12 inch rims when I removed the 15.5's. They seemed to fit perfectly with no objectionable curvature of the tread, compressing of the sidewall at the rim, etc.
