rim/wheel sources

Does anyone know of a good source for 16 inch six lug steelies like would have been found on a K1500 when new? I am not having much luck.

Pretty sure that they didn't make 16"s on any half ton 6 lug during our years. The only sizes were a 15" and 16.5". You might try Coker Tire or Wheel Vintiques if you are needing 16" steelies. Trevor

Re: rim/wheel sources

They were an option. My 1/2 ton pickup has them. 16 inch didn't seem to be very popular at the time so county vehicles were generally ordered with them so employees couldn't get a five finger discount on their tires. Most of the ones I have seen were owned by the county or people working for the county. Mine was owned by the sheriff.
