dual wheels

I have a 70 GMC 3500 flat bed that has been switched to single rear wheels. So....I bought a 66 tow truck for the dual wheels, pto trans etc.. after I pulled the wheels off I notice that they are 17.5 diameter and I can't find tires for those dang things. Any ideas?
Thanks

17.5's are still used on some motor homes and forward cab trucks like Hino and Nissan UD,but they're probably not too cheap.Most all of the older 8 hole patterns were the same,you might be better off with a set of 16" or 16.5" wheels from something newer.I'd try to stay away from any multi-piece lock ring wheels though,seen too many people killed by those things.
