Stupid steel rims

I've been searching for the OE style rims for my 76 F250 4X4 crew.
Do they exist? I want the old steel wheels. White and some hub caps like my Dads old truck had.
Frustrating. The places that have phone numbers don't answer. The "chat" bozos can figure it out.
I Must just be missing something.
Anyone?
Btw. I'll post pics once I figure out how.

Are you looking for the older 16.5's that were probably on there, or newer 16's? Anything off a up to a 96 should fit. I think they went to metric (8 on 177MM) bolt pattern in 96.

So you are probably looking for some 8 on 6 1/2 bolt pattern, 16" stock steel rims? Have you tried any local tire shops, JY, fellow Missouri FTE chapter members?

Come on by the Mo chapter and the monthly chat thread.

I recently gave a set of 16.5" rims from my '78 to the tire store. Not much interest. I was changing to 16's to get better tire choice.

JC Whitney offers or used to "reman" 16" steelies from later trucks that would fit. Might have a look there.
