Where to get 15x7 steel wheel?

Post by 12bridn »

The kelly tires I had were pitiful, I bought 5 in all, what with random sidewall punctures and the magnetic belts these things must have that pick up any metal object within 6 feet of the truck. Anyway, I managed to wear out a donut spare during the whole debacle. I just got new Firestone Destination LEs, and I kept the better (relative term here) of the four old tires for a spare.

My question is where do I get a steel wheel 15x7 with 6" backspacing? I have found some older S10 steel wheels, but nothing else. Are there other options?

Have you checked E-bay? S10warehouse in particular. I haven't looked there just lately but they had lots of singles last time I did. 8)

I gave away mine with the N90s I sold, or I would hook you up.

There is a place near here that has three ZR5 rims for 86.25 each. maybe I just get one of those....

You know, earlier today I couldn't get to this site, and I couldn't find any info. I'm lost without this place.

Buy the ZR5 wheels, Trade them for as many steel wheels as you want. You should find more than a few that will be willing.

I am heavily considering the idea of selling my ZR5 wheels and getting 5 steels plus some cash. I am more into utility and function than looks.
