WTB - Steel Wheels 15x10 and 15x8 4.75x5 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm looking for wheels for my '50 and figured i'd see if anyone out here has some. I'm sure i can find some local, so lets say within' an hour or so of des moines or waterloo.

I need a pair of 15x10's and a pair of 15x8's. I'm looking for some sort of rally and don't care about trim rings or caps. I plan to run baby moons on these. They do need to be a 4.75 x 5 bolt pattern though and backspacing should be around 5-6".

PM me if you have some that you'd be willing to part with.

No Rallyes will accept hubcaps.Are you planning to come up with some way to make then mount?

IvelDesigns · 04-03-2009, 08:18 AM

you're right. i basically want a steel wheel like what i have on my '69. guess i'm not sure what to call them

72BlckButy · 04-03-2009, 08:29 AM

Steelie... that's what I would call them.

bump!

EDIT

Levi... I will be at the Ararat swap meet this weekend, and I'll keep my eyes open for you. If you want shoot me a pm with your cell and I will give you a call if I locate anything. That way I can call and see you found any, and run the price by you.

Steelie works or OEM center(not as hip),since all vehicles used to just have steel wheels that took hubcaps.Back in the day we called them reverse wheels,like chrome reverse,or just deep dish.
I had a`65 F85 that had the 8s on back and 7s up front in`72 and that was getting rare to see back then.So,they are tougher than the truck pattern to find.The`70s killed that look.I`ll keep my eye out.Got a swap meet coming up.

TTT - for some reason i can't edit the original post to remove the rally comment.

I need 2 15x10 steelies with a 4.75x5 bolt pattern and 5-6" backspace. Also need 2 15x8's with a 4.75 bolt pattern.

I would prefer they all match.
