3-hole 15" wheel rims - where might someone find them?

salfonsi · May 11, 2012

Have a 1958 Ezee Flow Spreader Model 100B - Looking for the SPOKE WHEEL or the 3-hole rim. Any suggestions to where to start my search?

The only car that comes to mind that had three bolt wheels was Renault or Peugeot.
A wheel service center could probably fabricate a center for you.
Good luck!

Any chance of using half the holes in a 6-hole? Chevy had 6-hole 15" for a short time about late 50s, maybe after that too.

On some David Bradley equipment in the 1950's & 60's they use 3
bolt rims that were really 3 holes on a 5 bolt pattern mostly 15 &
16 inch wheels. I can't remember the circle diameter but it was a
regular wagon gear size. Check your wheel to see if there are
places for the other holes just not drilled.
I hope this helps you.

I have some car style 3 hole rims off a David Bradley wheel tractor. I think they are 15x7 or 15x6.

I also have a pair of JD spoke rims of of something I junked. But they are made to go on a shaft (no bolt holes).

I think they were the same patern as the David Bradley garden tractor that only used 3 of the 5 hole spots as the load did not require more of them and would be a standard 5 lug 5 1/2" bolt pattern to fit.

I used to have a New Idea trailer type sickle mower that had three lug wheels. They were pretty narrow - maybe 5.60 X 16 if I remember right. Might be another source for you.

Would it be like the 3 stud hub on my 1816 Case uniloader, it has 6 bolt rims and only use every other hole. That way if one set wears out I can rotate it to the new holes.

The New Idea mower used a 6 lug wheel but the hub was for only 3 bolts because it did not have a load on it. I use those New Idea wheels on a wagon with the 6 lugs.

My 1st Choice is still the spoke wheel, but you have the correct answer; SIX BOLT PATTERN - every other hole. I've seen 3 hole rims; just can't remember where. Going to try a place in Lewiston Idaho tomorrow, about 125 miles but lots of old rims. Are there caps for the unused holes; wonder what they're called? Thanks everyone!

OK Leroy - it's been a while since I've seen that mower. I guess I'd forgotten how many holes were in the wheel, but I do remember the hub only having three lug bolts. I converted that old mower to 14" wheels because used 16" tires were getting hard to find. Just the opposite today. . .

Looking for clutch house assembly (tire hub parts that allow you to engage and un-engage the agitator) on the spreader. Part # 21 FSA, 36 FSA for Ezee Flow spreader, several models used the same thing. Any part stores that might have them? Any help appreciated. Thanks.
