I'm just real worried about welding a bead-holding flange on. I don't think you realize what 40-70lbs of air pressure is capible of. Welding a flange on to bolt a flange on - oh boy that sounds like someone is going ot get hurt badly over the next 10 years. I don't care for it at all.
1. Take the rims to a tire shop, must be an ag tire shop somewhere around you - they will look them over & mount them right up for about $20 a piece if good - lot cheaper than your monkeying around with welding and bolting.
2. Take to a welding shop and have the centers welded into a rim. Or weld it yourself - if it fails it will be bad, but not horribly dangerous if around the farm.
3. Salvage yard or do a search for that size rim in a drop-center setup.
I'm just terribly uncomfortable with how dangerous your plan could turn out to be. Tire lip has increadable much explosive pressure.
