Tractor rims

Cattleman101

I have a Massey Ferguson 265 which is on r36 rims at the minute. The back tyres is 13.6 r36 and I want to put wider tyres on the tractor. The only problem i have is that a 13.6 is the widest tyre you can get for a 36 rim so I want to put 38 inch rims on it instead. I have a few questions that I was unsure about:
- Would a 38 inch rim line up with the studs ?
- Do you think 38 inch rims are too big for a 265?
- would I need to get bigger rims for the front aswell?.....16 inch rims on it at the minute.
- Where is the best place to get rims?...I know they won't be original 200 series rims but I think the 300 series rims were almost the same only bigger.
Tia.

16.9 r34 is what you need

Yes! White clover is correct! These are a very common rim tyre combo

Or a set of 18x30 to get a bit more rubber under her.

Thanks for that, might try that lad in Leitrim I'm sure he probably has them up there . Do you know if I will need some sort of adapter or would a 34 rim line up with studs on tractor? Thanks

Once you get Massey rims they will line up no bother. Other tractor makes might work too, eg International or David Brown. The fella selling should know if he is a dealer.
