get a set of white spoke wheels as they are usually the cheapest to buy new or used. soon as you open the boxes, sand them down. give them a coat of self-etching primer and sand them smooth. then paint them any color you want. i did that and the paint has lasted close to 10 years and still looks pretty darn good. i used spray enamel (rustoleum) because it holds up better than lacquer... imho.
just a thought.

Id like to find a set in 15 x 10 but these wheels are impossible to find around here for less than 100 bux in ranger pattern. I can find large bolt ford/jeep all day long but small bolt ford is almost impossible. Even the crappy ones are expensive.


I have 3 15x7 cragar soft 8's and can't find another to save my life. Im not really wanting to buy new. Good luck to you.
