You are looking for a much sought after item.
Suggest you watch ebay closely, try putting a free ad on this siight, and/or be prepared to purchase a whole tractor to get a set.

sgfhighbridge........unless yer a sphincterly challenged originality inspector building a trailer queen.......fuggittaboutitt. Modern replacement loop rims are so much better and NOT rust prone. I refuse to pay more for rims than the brand new ag-bar tires to fit them. ........Dell

Show up from time to time on ebay. I have one - don't know the condition. Looks OK on the outside but many times the band on the inside is badly rusted. That can be fixed but it is time consuming or expensive if you have someone else do it. I am in the St. Louis area. I have another big project going on now and am not planning on dismounting the tire on that rim and checking on it for some while. Jim.UT had a couple for sale last week. Don't know if they are still avail. If you don't know how to contact him, send me an email.

I have 4 of'em,,, 2 are not mine...

The 2 I have have been restored painted and ready to install $800...
They have epoxy primer with signal stage urethan paint and bed liner applied to the inside

The 2 that are not mine have been repaired with a new band and primed,, the repair cost the guy $300, he wants $400 for the set... Shipping would be extra for both sets... The band repair is done up nice , rims in very good condition but the prime job does not suit me...

Thanks for the plug! I sold those rims locally for $300/pair. They were nice. I have another pair, but like you said, i can't tell yet how good they are until I get the tires off.

I have one good hat rim and one rusted hat rim on my 8N. Will be replacing rusted one, but would replace good one if anyone wants my good rim for the price of a replacement and mounting.

No show tractor for me, just a work tractor.
