Re: 22.5'' Alum. Wheel Blanks from Ebay

the 8.25's sell for 209.00 a wheel
the 12.25s sell for 230.00 a wheel

For a guy on a budget (me) thats pretty awesome I plan to buy 2 of each and run super singles on my 69 i plan to make it a pickup and I think running a super single on the rear will look pretty cool.

I am planning to run a 445/65r22.5 out back and a 285/65R22.5 on the front
i want a taller tire in the rear to help with top speed.

Now as far as machine work goes thats the question that I have.
What would be a decent price to have 4 of these wheel blanks drilled to my lug pattern and center bore?

It appears the 8.25 blanks are still available. There are no 12.25 blanks currently on ebay.

Has anyone tried these?
I don't think any one answered the OP's queston of having them machined. They would need the center bored and the bolt holes drilled. I don't know if I would have holes machined into the face or let them smooth as suggested here.
