Best place to buy ...........

white wagon wheels for my 89 Ranger. I've run 14's in the front and 15's in the back for years with no problems at all. Kind of like the raised look a bit in the rear. It seems the old style white wagon wheels aren't nearly as popular as they were in the $%^^'s, yes, its been a long time ago. I still like the look ( just in the rear with a tad of a reverse on it )
Where's the best place to get new or almost new wheels ? I'll be needing 2 in the 15x7 five lug, didn't measure the lug spacing but I believe it to be 4.5 inches ?

Dang if you lived closer to Idaho there's a place called Cheaper Tire & Wheel, this guy literally has 10's of thousands of wheels and tires. You may try googling companies like that in your area. I agree these older 80's ford trucks are getting hard to find tires and wheels for. My Bronco 2 needs new tires, but I'm trying to figure out where to get some matching wheels first LOL.

Cragar Nomad is one of the wheels you want to look for:

$52 each at Summit Racing.

EDIT:

or US Wheel 70 Series:

There are others too, those are just two of the less expensive options for new ones.

I've got lots of stock wheels, just not the ones I like lol..

I must be in a time warp.. I remember port-a-walls, thick whitewalls, thin white walls, black walls, raised white letters, outline white letters, hub caps, no hubcaps, chrome reverse, then of course came the mag wheels craze. I still like the semi reverse wagon wheel in white with the blue/red thin trim around the outside. Just covered around 60 years or so..

Those two are just what I was looking for. I've got the credit card in my hand. The only question I have is.. what if any, is the difference between the two ? Any difference in quality ? The Cragar naturally looks better ( because its shown w/ the matching Cragar chrome hub ) while the U.S. wheel isn't shown with the hub.. I don't mind spending the extra $ 20 for the hubs but I kinda like the no name hub of the U.S. wheel. they spec the same as far as I could tell. Does anyone know ??
