Wheel Vintiques makes them and sells them #82-680804 or you can them through Summit #WVI-82-680804. Those part numbers are for 8 lug wheels.

Call junk yards in your area. Ford rims fit good for about twenty bucks each plus you never know what you can find. The store bought wheels dont have the three inch gap on four spots on the wheel. They are welded all the way around. Does not look stock. 6.5x8 bolt circle 16x7 wheel is what you need.

Re: Were can you get rims

I put them on my own truck and like them. Bought five for twenty dollars each. Sand blasted them and painted them white. Used rustolem paint and primer. It is kind of too hard. It chipped real EZ. I baked the wheels in my wifes oven at 125 for twenty min each. That should not have been a problem.
