Evening fellas,
I pulled my wheels and tires off today and had the tires taken off and disposed of, as I was planning to take them to get blasted and powder coated on Monday. Unfortunately one of the wheels turned out to be different than the other three (6” wide whereas the others are 6.5” wide), and one of the other three has had its center hub cut out Don’t really want to use that, though maybe it’s safe? See right wheel in the picture below.
Anyone know where I could find more of those wheels? Anyone got some they’d like to sell? I really just need two (or one, if the one on the right in the picture above is okay to use). They’re the 16” diameter, 6-1/2” wide steelies, 8 on 6.5” pattern.
Thanks guys

I’m definitely interested. Any idea how much it would be to ship a couple? I’m in California.Busboy wrote:I’ve got some originals if your interested.

Re: Where to find OEM steel wheels?
I ship a lot of parts so I’ll take an educated guess at 50.00 to 75.00 from Idaho. They are big and heavy.

Re: Where to find OEM steel wheels?
I found a good set of factory steel 15 inchers at my local salvage yard. Took them to have them blasted and powder coated. They look great, are durable, and I only forked out around 150.00. I only wish I could find the exact same style but in a deeper wheel.
