The steel felloe with integral clincher rim (I believe actually made from two steel pieces?)?
30 X 3 1/2 or 30 X 3? I know that some literature indicates that that style rim was used in 30 X 3 1/2 only for all four wheels? However, surviving front wheels, and era photographs indicate that many Fords with this style wheel did get 30 X 3 wheels and tires on the front just as wooden felloe wheels had continued to be.
I just want for you to get the right thing.

William, I have a couple good wood spoke wheels out here in Lockhart, TX that would mount 30 x 3 1/2 tires. They’re available for you,
