Dunlop and some others are still making tires in 31, 33 and 35 inch x 16.5-inch diameter. There are some off-road only tire manufacturers as well. I just bought two 9.75 inch x 16.5 inch Firestone steel wheels for $12.50/each. I would have paid more and may have to when I find another couple to match. There were other 8.25 and 9.75 wheels at the swap meet but they did not have the stock hubcap clips I wanted or I would have bought them too. In fact I would have bought them without the clips if they would have worked since I can install the clips. Prices are low but it really depends upon who is looking. I have to agree with MJN on the sizes!

catseye...whatcha got? Stock '68 hubcaps? LOL!
