I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for a deal, but just looking thru Craigslist, it looks like it's almost just as economical to buy new wheels. You can spend 300 for some used ones and probably have to drive to get them or you can spend 400 on new ones and have them shipped for free. LolLife is short. Be a do'er and not a shoulda done'er.

335 from Summit for black soft 8's - I didn't see a weight rating on these wheels? Period correct for me would be Western Hurricanes and 33x12.50's... can't find those at all.
something like that. I'll keep looking around here and see if anything interesting pops up... I kinda like the Aero D hole stuff too. I was looking for what Ford offered in the 250 dents and found this picture. It cracked me up because one of the hooters waitresses (26 year old) referred to this style as her grampa's hillbilly truck. When we laughed at her she said "you know what I mean, big mudders, but only in the back..."Flying south, with a flock of bird dogs.

Yeah I'm in Texas, but it can get freakin' cold here on the plains in the winter. Luckily, it does not tend to hang around too long.
Beagle, that was totally the style when I lived in Stephenville in the early 90's. LOTS and LOTS of Cummins Dodges running around with stock front wheels and big ole mudders on the rear.Life is short. Be a do'er and not a shoulda done'er.
