Try here

I assume you have the OEM wheels??

I bought a set of take off wheels here... they seemed to have a supply of new caps as well.

They are located in Elkhart Indiana.

On my truck I priced them at the dealership and they wanted $44.00 each. On the web I found them for $11.00 each and when I was out at the local junk yard looking for spare tire mounting hardware one of the wheels still had the hub on it and I got it for $5.00 and the spare tire hardware for $10.00. That was for the big strap that holds the tire and the two mounting bolts. Then I had to go to the dealership and get the big plastic retainer and bolt and they socked me $25.00 for that.

54 Oldsman,

They sure do dress the truck up if you had steel wheels before didn't they???

I am very happy with them.

I drove up there and had truckandrv mount and balance them.

They had several employee's working non-stop filling the mail order part of their business... very nice people to deal with.

have not mounted them yet as i'd like to have some new rubber to put on at the same time. from the trucks i've seen them on, they are a good looking upgrade from the steel wheels!!
