Calling all rim specialists. I need an 11x16 rear rim for a Kioti LB1914. Kioti has discontinued and does not sell it. All States in WI has none left. I have found that Kubota 2600 series has 11x16 rims but wrong pivot hole size and bolt pattern but I think I have come to the conclusion if I can get an 11x16 rim I will cut my center out and the new rim center out and weld my center in its place. So....anyone out there with an 11x16 rim out there???? I am in east central IN and will be traveling thru KY,TN and NC this weekend and could pick it up.....

If it is a "16 inch" rim,, there are zillions of those, even truck rims,,
an 11 inch 16" truck rim would be easy to find.
The hub change will make it easy to find such a rim,,

If you're rebuilding the wheels, Skid Steer wheels are either 10x16.5 of 12x16.5, and would be good wheels and tires. TOUGH. However, they would be a bit of a pain to match the wheel centers. Weld up and redrill?
For 16" auto rims, look at vintage hot rod/racing wheels. Also look at off road 4x4 wheels.
I accidentally purchased some 10x16 8 bolt aluminum wheels (when I needed narrow).
For tractor wheels, look for a local tractor scrapper. They have to be scattered around the country. The local tractor scrapper is Farmland Tractor near Albany, Oregon.

At one time they had a whole yard full of miscellaneous tractor wheels. I think they ship. Large wheels would be a pain to ship, but perhaps not too bad for 16".
Calcium is hard on tractor tires, and should never be used with tubeless. There are better alternatives now.

Looking on Google and E-bay, most 16" tractor tires are actually listed as 16.1". A few are showing up listed as 16", but it is hard to know the difference.
As I mentioned, 16.5" skidsteer tires are common. The beads for all the x.5" rims are sloped, and very different than the standard car rims.
You may look at both tires and rims to future proof your project.
Also, make sure you're measuring the rim width, not just what is stamped on the tire.
