OK Guys would you keep the wheels or would you change over to one ton?
If so WHY?
As far as changing tires. There are very few people who will change split rim wheels! They Run when I pull up. "Sorry INSURANCE will not let us change those" They call them Widow Makers"
DO I have any options on other rims that may fit this the way it is.
YES This is a serious question. I saw a solid ring (non split rim)that was on a Firetruck one time, but the guy knew nothing about where to get them and how to mount them.
I know some of you have more info for help on this one.

Two options I can think of. Take it to a small town tire shop. Especially a town with several farmers. Those tire shops will change them out faster then a new style rim. If you want to change them contact a drivetrain store tell them what you have and they will tell you what you need.

Just bought an '83 CC. Good shape for a Michigan truck.

My plans are converting to 4x4. Dropping in a Cadillac 500 ci.

It will be used as a tow rig.

Limited Edition? Anybody have info?

A year and a half later. 4wd done, Caddy engine done, almost ready for paint. Man... there is a lot of surface area on these things.
