Jim: My 130 came new with 5:50x16 tires on cast spoke wheels. When I went to replace the rims, no longer available. (several sources I might add) One business tried to sell me blank rims and rivit on lugs from a Farmall H or 300. I pointed out to him H-300 lugs had 5/8" hole and while they were made for the 16" rim, the cast spoke center on H or 300 is larger diameter than a 130.
My brother has a 230 came new with those same 5:50x16 cast spoke wheel as my 130. I remember when those were bought new, dealer had 4 - 130 and 4 - 230 all equipped the same on front wheels. Those cast hubs are designed to take either 15" or 16" factory original rims.
I Replaced my front rims by welding a 1/2" x 1-1/2" band inside a blank rim, the fabricating lugs to weld to the band. From a distance he made it look right, up close, not so good.
I recently looked at a 79 - 140 with 5:50x16 pressed steel rims, factory original. Erik has 4 - 140s all with 16" pressed steel rims. He didn't say if they all came that way. Lot of 140s around here with 12.4x24 rears on 11" rims. It takes the 5:50 or 6:00 x 16" to make those tractors run level and look right. I have 12.4x24 on both my 130 and 140. I need that to pull that 31 row bean planter. haha

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
