Anybody have any leads on finding Long/Fiat rear tractor rims? Ebay has then all day at$300! Looking for a 13-28 rim. Found one in Louisiana at $125 but after shipping here to North Carolina still over $200. Hoping to find one within driving distance of Western N.C. Also are their options for swapping out entire rim center etc. The old Long tractors have a unique bolt hook up, not a spinout of loop but what I call a z type pattern. This is all new to me just trying to help my 76yr old neighbor out on his tractor. Current rim has large Calcium rust out which punched tube pretty bad shape. Thanks in advance...
 
What I have done, many times, is take another rim of the same size and cut sections out of it to weld into the damaged rim. I used to do this with just a stick welder. Now with a wire welder I can do them to where you can not tell the rim was repaired. All it takes is time in making the patches fit well before doing any welding. Heck I usually used another damaged rim. Most times they are only bad on one side or the other leaving good sections to use.
 
The standard 6 loop rim can be used in place of the type rim that's on the Long now,those are available about anywhere.The centers off the Fiat/Long and the US built tractors with
8 lugs will not interchange the bolt patterns are slightly different.$200 to get a good rim to fit the tractor and get it going isn't unreasonable especially if that's all he can find to get it going.
 
I have 2 with tires, no fluid, think that the tires are 13.6, so may be too small. Just north of Kingsport Tn.
