I have a 10X38 pressed wheel off from a 66 that is bent. I cut the rivets off and laid the center on a flat floor, and it lays true. Now the rim itself on the other hand, does not. One side of it is lifted off the floor by probably an inch and a half. That's how I noticed it was bent, following behind the tractor, you could see it wobbling in and out like an old semi rim. It's in very good shape, so I hate to just junk it, so I'd like to try to straighten it. I thought about setting it on some planks with the high side up and chaining the other side down and running a dual off one of the big tractors over the high side, hopefully pushing it beyond zero to which it would return when the weight is removed. Anyone have a better idea? Maybe hold it down with the backhoe and lift under it with the skidsteer? I can't imagine it takes much to bend the rim, they seem to be fairly flexible without the center in them.
