You can also check ebay. There are some vendors there that have good prices.

Big swap meets too... no shipping and you can avoid paying the man if you have cash

Newstalgia seems to have good pricing with free shipping on eBay, and since jgmc had good luck with them it looks like a good deal.

It doesn't look like they have any 16x7s on auction, but here's a link for their 17x7s if you want their information:

We are dealers for American Racing. I don't believe they make a 16X7 in the II's just 8" only 7" is a 15"dia

Re: TT II's....Best place to purchase?

A 15x7 wheel would actually give you more options on tire choices.

For example, if you wanted to run BFG tires, they make a 285/60/16 tire for the rear, and you could get a matching 235/70/15 tire for the front. I've actually considered this option for my truck.

Go HERE, then click on "specs".
