17" steel wheel
Has anyone found a wheel manufacturer other than Stockton that makes a 17 steely with 5 on 5?

Re: 17" steel wheel
might try these guys - but not certain they do 17" - but you could give em a ring (their websites are a little vague).

Re: 17" steel wheel
If you can find them, there are 16.5" steelies in both 5 and 6 lug that accept poverty caps. The centers are bigger than the 15's and could be put into a 17" hoop by a reputable shop.

Re: 17" steel wheel
I would not go with Wheel Vintiques they don't let you return anything even if you have not removed it from the box. Their customer service is really horrible that is if you can even get them on the line. When I was ordering from them the phone number on the web sight was the wrong number. Also if you do order from them Make sure that the wheals are round before you mount them. I have heard stories of people that have had mounted the tire and they would not let them return the wheel because it was mounted even though it was bent. Other than that I have been perfectly happy with the wheals that they sent me.

Re: 17" steel wheel
Coker Tires also sells wheels. I believe they have steelies up to 20".

Re: 17" steel wheel

and i was thinking the same as "oldtrux" about maybe buying Wheel Vintiques from Summit...i've always had good service with them |

Re: 17" steel wheel
I too would like a 17x7 steel wheel for the front that accepts a dog dish cap, and a 17x8 for the rear. The only 5x5 ones I can find at summit are corvette style rallies, which I dislike
