You and everyone else in North America with these trucks are looking for those wheels. Few and far in-between nowadays. I looked for 3 years and still only managed to get a set of 4 original wheels. Had to order 2 reproduction wheels from Wheels Now. That's who I would contact.

Same.

I only ended up finding two and ended up just getting the ones from wheels now.

Were the wheel studs on the rear axle too short with the aftermarket wheels? I've read about some guys running into issues due to the aftermarket wheels being thicker than originals. I used 1 original and 1 aftermarket on my rear end and the stud is flush with the lugnut.

I did run into the stud issue but only by a thread.

I keep an eye on them and have considered a shallower modern nut with the washer built in.

I don't run mine a lot but so far, no issues.
