Tractors IH sent to the Nebraska test site in 1939 were equiped with 36 inch rubber. Parts book I have that was printed in 1-1940 shows only 36 inch rims. Sometime between there and by sometime in the first months of 1941 38 inch showed up. Also the MD IH sent for test in may of 41 had 38 inch. If they were around for a M they probably were for a H also.
Looking at old pictures of H tractors some 1940 ones had 38 on them.
36 inch rims were listed in parts for H tractors way on up along with 38 and 40 inch sizes. IH parts books refered to rubber tires as special up into the late forties and steel as standard. Some steel sizes were called special. Late forties IH dropped the special name on rubber tires.
Dad and uncle had a early 1941 H with 38 inch rubber and according to them that was the size that came on it. Also kind of unusual for that year it was a gasoline X1 model.
