Thanks guys. A lot of good advice and suggestions here.
I understand now about tread width being measured from center to center of each rim. (Sorry I missed that earlier)
Cub centers have 5 bolts while A & B centers have 6.
Another option I am considering is using a blank rim (sold without hoops) and welding the hoops on myself. I've heard people talk about doing this with truck rims except truck rims are typically 24.5" in diameter.
I'm going to have to get the wheels off for the kids to get the frame all cleaned up. Might as well do some experimenting with how the rims are mounted to the centers.
Does anyone know how different a cub rim is from an A/B rim? Wouldn't the hoops be spaced evenly around the rim a 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees? or did the cub space them differently for some reason? (never know with the ol' IH engineers)
