This is about the only thresher on rubber that we've encountered in this neck of the woods. That doesn't necessarily mean that it's any newer that steel wheeled threshers as the wheels could have been changed over the years. Though many might say that this thresher was built by McCormick Deering, it was actually made by International Harvester. McCormick Deering was only their sales arm and didn't manufacture.

The museum is on Round Butte Road at the corner of 6th Avenue NW. on the west edge of the town of Ronan, MT.
