No wheels available

How come I cannot find anyone selling new 8 lug wheels (other than 16's)? I work for a dealer and I know they are out there but I cannot find any for sale online. I am looking for 18's and possibly 20's (on the rear only). I would really like to put 15 inch prostars on it, but I cannot afford to convert the suspension to 5 lug. I know it sound stupid that I cannot afford to change the suspension but I can afford 18's....I can get takeoff tires for free at work, that's why I am looking for big wheels.

O.k. Maybe I should make myself a little more clear, I have been looking at places like the tire rack, discount tire direct, etc. I saw this site earlier, but the wheels are way to expensive. But thanks anyway's

I didn't mean any offense. Pretty much all the 18" - 20" wheels are expensive, or at least the ones I've seen. You may be better off finding a junk 71-72 truck and buying it for the 5 lug suspension. I'm not sure about your area, but I pick them up all the time from $200 - $500.
