MF 1010 4WD Hydro rear wheels / rims

[Zebra1]

Hello,

I picked up a 4WD Hydro 1010 last year and it had been sitting / sinking into the ground for a few years. Between the filled tires leaking and the rims being underground they have now rusted to the point of failure. I've been searching for replacement rims and I'm striking out. I know these Japanese built models can be hard to find parts for, but I didn't think a rim would be one of them! Maybe I'm just blind....
Size 16" x 5", Bolt circle = 5.5"
If anyone has any idea where to look it would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Kurt

If center is ok have a rim welded on it it's not heavy tractor

That's exactly what I ended up doing. I had a set of 16" rims and I cut the centers out of both old & new rims and welded them up. I couldn't match the offset exactly but close enough. I've got about a 3" wider rear track now...better stability!
If I find some stock rims, I'll consider putting those on.
Thanks for your reply!
