20 inch steel wheel availability

Looking to drop my longfleetside this summer, and I am running the early 80's 15 inch 4x4 slotted truck rally's. I really like the look and handling of a 20 inch wheel, but I am not into the shiny chrome or billet stuff. I have spent too many saturdays making sure I get arthritits later in life by polishing those damn wheels. I do like the ratrod style with the whitewalls and red steelies, but i am leaning towards those in a 20 inch size. There was a post a month or two ago where a guy got adapters and bolted up a set of Dodge 20 inch spares, it was beautiful. But that was the only set of 20 inch steelies I have ever heard of.

Here is an example of what I am after, but much larger. http://wheelvintiques.com/shopsite_s...ml/page13.html


Anyone know of where I can find something like this in a 20?

Good judgment comes from experience, and experience, well......that comes from bad judgment.


1968 Chevy C-10 "Longshot": Bought used from my Uncle George in 1994 and proceeding to beat the hell out of it for 4 years. Sold it. Bought it back, dumped an ungodly amount of money into it since then.

Re: 20 inch steel wheel availability

Outside of the late model Dodge spare wheels- the only other outfit I've seen that offers a 20" steel wheel is Stockton Wheel Service. The deal is they'll custom fab any bolt pattern & Backspace for any size from 15" to 24.5". The hitch is they use a flat steel center. These are made for the old-skool Military vehicles and Power-Wagons.
