Trying to locate factory steel wheels w/4 bumps on front for disc brake/ whubcap

Anybody know where to locate some of the factory steel poverty rims that have the bumps on the front to hold the dogdish hubcaps? They'll have 4 holes in the rim. I need some to do a disc brake conversion on a 63 and the rims were stock chevy/gmc from 74-up.

Are you wanting the 5-lug wheels or 6-lugs?

The 5-lugs can be found under many 'plain' 71-87 GM trucks or suburbans that had factory full wheel hubcaps. The 6-lug models were the 'cheap' wheels on the 73-87 4wd's (blazers, burbs, & trucks). The 6-lug wheels are harder to find.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Looking for the 6 lug. Have two....but need at least 1 for a spare and would like 3 total. I have been through every yard within 45 min off here that I know of and can't locate any. Should be a common wheel.

Common then, but hard to find now.
