Fordiesel69 263 #1 Posted May 20 (edited) I have a wanted ad up for some rear rims. Was curious what rims will fit. Does the 520H classic rims interchange with the XI hub / lugnut pattern? Also anyone know the factory dimensions of these rims so when I am looking I can make sure to get the correct ones? Edited May 20 by Fordiesel69 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OoPEZoO 524 #3 Posted May 20 Any of the rear wheels from a 300-400-500 wheel horse tractor will physically bolt up fine to the 5xi, but the 500 series tractors got the wider 12x8.5" rear rims. Classic 520H and the 5xi rear wheel are the same 12x8.5 (part number 110680) If you end up looking at non wheel horse rims, you will find many that bolt up, but make sure you pay attention to the back spacing. I was getting tired of trying to find a decent set and managed to score a free set of 12x10 rear rims off of a Gravely zero turn along with free 24x12x12 tires. The bolt pattern was incorrect, but the wheels were brand new. I cut the center disks out, ordered new ones from Miller tire, and welded them into the Gravely wheel to match the backspacing I wanted. Not the most conventional solution, but it turned out great. Then I mounted the set of 24-12-12 tires on the rear of my 314-8. When it came to my 522xi, I kept the original 8.5" wide rear wheels but swapped the tires out for 26x12x12. They fit with no mods to the tractor, but the tires are a bit fat for the stock wheels IMHO. If I can score another set of wider wheels somewhere, I will do the same operation I did with my 314. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fordiesel69 263 #4 Posted May 21 So the clarify, I'm not smart with rims, offsets, etc. A 520 rear rim interchanges with a Xi series correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OoPEZoO 524 #5 Posted May 22 Yup….the rear rims are literally the exact same part number for both tractors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fordiesel69 263 #6 Posted May 23 Ok so the pair I thought was avail kind of locally fell thru, the were the 7.5" wide for 400 series. Any other tips to help me hunt some down? I have a wanted ad but not alot of hits yet and im in very urgent need of some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OoPEZoO 524 #7 Posted May 23 I wish I did. I hardly ever see a set for sale locally. Even when I do see tractor wheels, its difficult to make sure they are exactly what you want until you see them in person and drop a tape measure on them. Like I said, I got tired of trying to find a set and made my own. You could always take day and head down to the big show next month in Biglerville. You can almost always find a few sets floating around there for a reasonable price......not to mention a bunch of other WH stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fordiesel69 263 #8 Posted May 25 Could it be possible that the older 416 dash 8 with the Kohler magnum 16 single cyl not the twin would have the correct rims. I have one that looks like it might but I'm struggling to measure the rims being the tires are on it. They are a wider stance than all of my other 300 and 400 series.
