Thread: Identify tractor/implement wheel rim?

Any ideas????

ROH made a lot for the ADF equipment.
But, I guess you've been down that track.

Who made/supplied the trailer?

I could do with one too, for the front of my Massey Ferguson backhoe loader, it has one cast wheel that I want to replace.
That rim looks the same as the style as the other pressed steel rim, they are a heavy duty rim made from thicker material than a normal tractor rim.

If you come across any tractor wreckers that have more rims than you need, can you let know, thanks.

Hi Arthur

Do you mind if I ask which year & model MF backhoe you have? It may make the search easier.

If I cant find exactly the same profile but a pair of heavy pressed rims with the same PCD/offset would you consider a swap?

Hi Diana

The tractor it'self, is a Massey Ferguson 203 ( very similar to a MF35x ), fitted with a three cylinder AD3.152 engine, the next updated model became a MF40 .

The rim is a good size for a 7.50 x 16 tyre, but I would need to pull the rim off to measure it's thickness of the centre, the internal width of the rim's bead, stud hole size and the offset.

If I could get a pair of slightly wider rims, capable of taking larger tyres, ie 8.25 x 16 with the same or better strength in the wall of the centre, that would be ideal for me using the loader in sandy loose soil.

First thing is to find out if your rim ( the one that you want to duplicate ), has the same bolt pattern as the TEA20, FE35, MF35x, MF65, 135, 203 and MF40.

I will take the camera out and see if I can get a good photo of the one I have here.

Hi Arthur

I took the wheel to our Truck & Tractor dealer and the PCD is the same as the Bare Co generic rim B6808. 6" x 6 for 5.5" wide x 16" rim 7.50 16 tyres (same PCD on the 6.00 16 B6807 rim and 4.00 19 B6806 rim)

According Bare Co, the PCD seems to fit almost all MF Te20, MF35, 65, early 135, 148, 165, 175, 168, 178, 185, 188, 265, 275, 285, 290, 565, 575, 590, 595, 675, 690, 698, 699, 365, 375, 390, 398, 399, 3050, 3060, 3065, 3070, 3080, 3090, 3085, 3095, 3610, 3630, 3645, 3650, 3655 Bare Co - MF - Front Wheel Hub

Hi Mick

There are no external markings to manufacturer and I don't want to take the tyre off just yet. The trailer was manufactured by Horndraulic in Melbourne, there is a manufacturer in the UK by the same name that makes agricultural equipment and tractors so I'm assuming its the same company.

Have measured up my rim.

The rim is made out of 3.75mm material
The centre 6.6mm material
5.5 inch wide rim 22.5mm positive offset
Checked PCD 152mm X 6
