My 180 has 9.5l 15 inch front tires on it. they are mounted on implement rims that are reversed so they will clear the spindle. I need to replace the rims, bolt holes are egged out, and was looking for rims that have an offset to clear the front spindle, or guess they are called the knee. Any idea where to start looking? Really dont want to go to 7.50 rims and tires.
Thanks Randy

Many 200 tractors had 9.5L x 15 front tires. They weren't as tall as 10:00 x 16's.  When they changed the oil pump/oil pan on the 200, the nose went up in the air 2 inches or more, so the 9.5L's tried to level it back out, especially with 18.4 x 34's on the rear.

Ruined a rim years ago, Bought online off Fleabay and was exactly what was on my own 180.  Since found a Used one and have Two Sets of my own.

Not sure where will find but were quite prevalent less than 12 years ago.

Would a rim off a 200 have an offset that would work on a 180?

If you're in a pinch and can only find implement rims with the wrong offset, you can usually drill out the spot welds between the centre disc and outer hoop, then knock the centre out and re-position and re-weld to get a different offset. I've done it a few times. A little bit of careful measuring, careful grinding, and paint, and you'll never be able to tell.

Here's a thread on another forum that discusses it:  https://www.casecoltingersoll.com/threads/changing-wheel-offset.17267/" rel="nofollow - https://www.casecoltingersoll.com/threads/changing-wheel-offset.17267/

Yes. 180-185-190-200 front wheels should all interchange.

Last year I put new wheels and 7.50-16 tires on my 190XT and have been happy with them. My old wheels were 8x16 and would fit either direction, unlike the 8x15 wheels that I can find that have a little over an inch offset. You could replace what you have with a new wheel, or you could go up an inch in diameter and try to find a short tire. I don't know what you use the tractor for, but I think if I was doing it I would just replace what you have. New wheels are available and aren't expensive, and most are already an off-white that is close to the right color.

Couple months ago was looking for new tires for the 200. Took old 4 ribs off and measured the rims, 15x10. Tire guy said he couldn't get a 4 rib 15" wide enough for a 10" wide rim. We settled on a set of 4 rib 10.00/15's. A little shorter but still looks good on the tractor. So make sure your tire size is available for whatever rim you use.
