What is the size of the 5 hole pattern on a WD? Is there a automotive wheel that will fit? I had a brand new tire seperate and a huge knot come up on it. I want to go to 15" wheels, like 5.00x15. I will buy alunimum wheels if I figure out what will work. Jegs have some nice ones on their web site.

I believe any 5x4.5'' bolt pattern car wheel will work

Old Buick car rims will work.

5 X 5. There are automotive wheels that will fit, but you have to reduce the diameter on the hub so the wheel will fit over the pilot / center.

So we got a 5x4.5 and a 5x5... I'll measure when I get home and add my two cents. :)

or just make the hub hole on the wheel bigger, take a die grinder and just let the grinder run around the rim and DONT try to go against the direction the grinder wants to go, or you will get an off round circle

At the time it was easier to reduce the size of the hub than to take a die grinder to a brand new set of fancy chrome wheels. But yes you could increase the size of the pilot hole in the wheel if you so desire.

Two ways to get there one way is to cut the centers of the WD wheels and then cut the centers out of CA wheels then weld the WD centers in the CA rims and you will have 5.00"X15" wheels that will look like they came on the tractor, or find a set of RC front wheels.
