Spin out rims

[faluppa 0]

Has anyone seen any spin out rims that would fit a 23-8.50x12 tire ? I'm looking ahead to potential project and did not know if such a thing has even been made.

Deere made some adjustable rims but I don't think they spun out. Rare as hen's teeth they're a bit pricey. Only set I have ever seen sell.

Good golly miss Molly. A man has to eat. Might have to make some faux spin outs.

id="quote">Spin out rims are used on AG tractors for adjusting wheel width for row crop cultivation. Here's a decent vid clip showing them. Skip ahead to the 4 minute mark.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqoY1iauoVIThere was a set of these Deere rims that sold in a facebook auction recently for more than the ebay rims. Deere guys go bananas over things like this. I've heard they were a design that was scrapped at the factory, and some sets escaped, and I've heard they were simply poor selling, poorly designed. I didn't realize the ebay ones were sold at my local boneyard!

http://www.thelittletractorco.com/ is the site that inspired my question. I think it would be fun to some day build an Oliver 1850 wide front and a Allis Chalmers CA wide front. But such a project is a long ways out yet. Thanks for the help though everyone!

Wow what a job he is doing.

I have often thought it would be nice for the odd sickle spots I do to have variable width wheelbase but didn't think anyone actually did it..

I can see if I found a pair of those in barn for next to nothing, I would practically pee myself..........3K+??!? Holy adjust-a-wheel Batman!
