Yes, they make a torque thrust II's in six lug form. The owner from Christian's Classic Truck Parts has some on his truck but in 17". They look nice.

How about these? My dad has em on his 53 Chevy PU. Chrome steel rim with a chrome aluminum center.

There are many many 6 lug rims out there. If you aren't seeing too many, then lookin the 4X4 section or in the off road magizines.

Rdrdave, Yep those are 6 lug. Classic Trucks magazine just did a suspension article in this months issue. They put an ECE 4/6 drop kit and disc conversion on a 65 fleetside. They installed a set of those wheels in 17x8 with 6 lugs.
76bonanza, they'll have to fit over the stock hub! You should see how far the hub sticks out on dad's 53. If it fit over his, it'll definetly fit yours.
