Show me your 8 lug wheels!

[theblindchicken]

I was wanting to find those in 6 lug and 15x10.

I have the 15x10 6 lugs on right now with Cragar center caps. I want to grab these so that when I swap to the 8 lug rear, they'll match even though the lugs won't.

These are what I'm running currently. 18" wheel made by Eagle iirc. I bought 'em used and will be trading for 17s so I can run Boggers.

I'm hoping to grab these up soon to match my existing 6 lug slots:

They are pretty cool. Too big for my 2WD I think.

not the best picture, but you get the idea. 100x better than the dodge wheels that were on it when I picked it up.

I can't believe it but I ended up finding a set of factory steel wheels at U Pull. Out of probably 50 trips this is the one trip where I netted almost everything on my long term shopping list. Just have to get some hub caps. Thinking of having them powder coated like Green79's.

I guess there were different size caps. Anyone know the 3/4 ton 16" wheel hub cap size?

Hey Green, how much did powder coating cost you?

 

[Green79Scottsdale]

I don't know a technical size for the caps. I believe there is only two sizes, for the 16"/16.5" 8-lug wheels and 15" 5-lug wheels. The caps for the 16"/16.5" 8-lugs have 6 "spokes", if you will. The 15" caps only have 5 "spokes". Somebody correct me if I am wrong, I am not 100% sure on the total story. If I get out to my truck soon I will measure mine.

I got mine done for $35/wheel, $140 total. That included sand blasting, cleaning, "primer", and coat. Most places I called in my area were up around the $50-$65/wheel range. What color are you thinking? What color is your truck?

You are correct.

I think the smaller ones are around 8 inches and the larger ones are around 11 inches?

Awesome, thanks guys. I am going to get the wheels painted white like yours Green79. I also thought about black without caps. depends if I can find some nice caps or not. There is a dude on ebay selling a set of NOS caps for over $1000.... But I did find some used for around 50. Used it is!!

Here is the truck. The side rails are gone. The headache rack will be when I figure somewhere else to mount the lights.

What's so special about these wheels? I have them on my 77' and they seem to pretty popular.

They are few and far between, I would love to have a set also. I haven't come across any in years. They just have a great nostalgic look to them.
