Closer inspection they were 5 lug. The hubs looked pretty suspiciously like they were "fitted" from a GM. I'm pretty sure 6 lugs like others have pictured is the norm.   [Reply]  [No Email]

To my knowledge Deere never used less than a 6-bolt wheel in any tractor. I am not sure about the current models. Mike   [Reply]  [No Email]

I haven't ever seen a set of "original" 5 bolt. I don't even think it could be a later model front end or hubs. I think all the way to the 435 they had 6 bolt hubs them.   [Reply]  [No Email]

"Mac" our 51MT has 6 bolt wheels. "Rusty" our 51MT has 6 bolt wheels. "Sam" our 51MT has 6 bolt wheels. Probably safe to say that OEM wheel for both the M and MT is 6 bolt.   [Reply]  [No Email]
