The way the dish of the wheel was turned had to do with row spacing. With the wheels dished out you could slide them in on the axle far enough to be centered on 36" rows. Any row width narrower than 36 required the dish to be turned in. This assumes you were stradling 2 rows as was the case with most row crops in the corn belt at that time. The tractors in other areas areas usually had the wheel dish out for safety reasons because a wider tread is safer especially on hillsides. In areas where specialty crop such as sugar beets or vegatables were grown the wheel were dished in. Tractors were transported from the factory to the dealers with the dish turned in.
