You could even put the bolts thru a piece of angle iron long enough to contact the tire bead as a clamp to seal the plywood to the tire. It would also give strength to the concrete later. Pour the concrete, level it and finish it off nice, then after it sets take off the outside nuts and remove the plywood. Put it on the tractor and use the same nut to attach it to the wheel.
