i just picked up a 37 wc for my 10 year old son who is excited to have his own tractor and go pulling. it has 12.4 x 28 rears which we will stay with for now as its a stock motor. my question is on the fronts. it currently has the correct 6 bolt hubs. I have some 5 bolts from parts tractors laying around which im assuming will fit? would like to run some smaller tires on the front. Looking for advice on what vehicles i can get donut spares to fit up there, (the 5 bolt) or suggestion on minimal work to accomplish. I could buy some 3x15 b/c wheel blanks and weld in 5 bolt centers cut from old wc/wd rims but time you buy new tires, tubes and rims your looking at half the price of the tractor lol ------------- Me -C,U,UC,WC,WD45,190XT,TL-12,145T,HD6G,HD16,HD20 Dad- WD, D17D, D19D, RT100A, 7020, 7080,7580, 2-8550's, 2-S77, HD15 |

If it was me, I'd make a set of 6 bolt centers to weld into a pair of 12" rims for 4.00X12 front tires. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

Browsing the net after seeing your suggestion, i see that is a common size for trailer tires and a complete tire and rim can be had for about $75. All that would be needed is fabbing the 6 hole disc to weld in. I will look into this a little more.
