Hi. I have a 1956 F600 Dump Truck and need to locate a minimum of 3 rims for it as the ones I have are the widow makers and nobody wants to mount tires on them. They are the 5 lug 20 inch. Could anybody help in locating them or providing a company who could make a set?

 

If you have 5 lug these will work for you and they would be better than the 20" Put 2 new steer tires on and the front would be good as new.

Those are way over priced.

 

They are? I was just pointing out those were available, you just don't find them everyday, that's why everyone is running the 19.5 rims cause they cant find these

 

I lined up six for $200- each last week, and they are local so no shipping. I found them on the for sale forum here on this sight. jmadsen usually has some and he sells them for the same price, usually with tires on them.

I considered running the 19.5 rims but not because I couldn't find the 22.5's. The 19.5 rims go for $85- in the for sale section. American Wheel Specialists in Pasco WA has the 22.5's new for $287- and the 19.5's new for $250-. They will also take your widowmaker centers and put them on either 22.5 or 19.5 rims for even less.

I have seven widowmaker centers that I will give to anyone that wants them, and I can even drop them off in Pasco for them if they want, then they are only dealing with shipping one way. If they live anywhere near a Les Schwab Tire, then the shipping would be free.
