Wheel identification, what's it off ?

I bought these from a local John Deere supplier and was told they came off a 30 series tractor but he wasn't sure what they were originally off. Can anyone identify them? ignore the colour. PCD looks to be the same as J/Deere, I haven't tried them yet!

If the centres are really thick and strong I'd say they might be standen rowcrop mated to older rims? I've a few sets here. I search them out because they are much better than original Ford centres when you get to 100hp plus.

David brown wouldn't have 6 round holes they'd have 3 square holes for weights and the rims in the picture aren't shaped enough between the rim lug bolt holes

Wow! Thanks for your input guys. After spending days of filling and sanding I hope they fit. All I know is I should have tried them first before painting but I had a small window for getting them sandblasted and painted. So they should fit my John then? Any idea of what to do wheel nut/stud wise with them having a taper as I am sure my standard bolts are not tapered.

Either find some tapered nuts of the correct profile or you can get washers to fit. It is critical to use one or t’other else you will have big issues

Any idea where I could get some countersunk washers for the wheels? Are there tractor specialists that stock them?

I haven't got the wheels and tractor in the same place, I have another problem to deal with first. I need to get the front axle spindles refitted.

I bought a Daf Drawbar trailer from EB equipment, it came over from abroad with a machine on it, the trailer was not exactly clean and tidy enough to pull behind a truck,, but it made a fine bale trailer
One of the wheel nuts was missing when we got it so I went to the local Daf Truck dealers, they hadn't a wheel nut with the taper on, but had a plain nut and tapered spring washer which did the job.
or maybe


If anyone was thinking the original paint was David Brown yellow, I can't think of a model with 8 stud wheels that colour.
