I need to replace a rusted rim. It's on a 1964 Ford 4000 row crop and is the 4 slotted plate power adjust type (I don't know how important that is). The tire is labelled: `14.9-28 on 13" rim`. However, the existing rim width is 11" at the bead. An OEM or aftermarket replacement rim is not available, so I cut out the 4 slotted plates to weld to a blank rim. The biggest rim that will still allow the plates to be attached is a 12" rim. My tires are still good, so I'd prefer to use them, obviously. So, does anyone know... Will these tires be ok on a 12" rim? What tire size *should* be on this tractor? Has anyone had any luck with this rim transplant operation? Thanks for the help.
