Alright

Apologies for another tractor related question.

 

Does anyone know of decent sellers/scrappies specialising in old tractor/dumper wheels/rimms? 

Or the best old tractor mag for adverts for specialists?

 

The tyres are 8.3x20 and look similar to old fashioned Lister engineer type dumper tyres, the tyres have decent tread but are badly perished, althou still seem to hold air ok.

I can still buy new tyres to fit so not a problem there.

 

But was thinking if I could get a 2nd set of rims I could save the perished set for twins for occasional use

Just trying to keep costs down a wee bit the now to see how it works and make sure I get enough work for it

Originally thought about making/modifing a set of modern 6T dumper wheels fit for extra floatation and modern cheap high ply rating tyres.

 

But after working the machine the traction and grip it's got is brilliant with these narrower tyres worried putting big tyres on it would alter this and sit on top and just spin in normal use and use the twins for wetter ground when needed

Obviously been designed this way for a reason and the wheels studs we set up for twins

 

So if anyone could recommend a few scrappies etc would be geat
