Steelies in San Diego??

Seeing if anyone has a set of 16" 8 lug on 6.5" bolt circle plain steel wheels for sale cheap so that I can start driving my F2

I need the large center bore to clear the rear hub. I have a UPS account that can be used if someone is willing to ship. Thank you!

may not be what ya want but i would suggest looking at late model trucks all the way up to the mid 80's . the 5 lug and 8 lug patterns were shared for many years and by all manufacturers for some time . im sure you can find a suitable set for now till ya find a set of oe ones to get you rolling down the boulevard in style .......

Kevin is right. Any 3/4 ton Ford or Dodge rim will work. I don't know on the Dodge when they went metric, but the 1997 and earlier F-250 HDs will work.

If you're after the stock 16" F-2 rims to let you mount stock hub caps, I've got two that would get you started on a set. But shipping would be a killer. Stu

I have a set of 4 with caps on a parts truck. I can't say any thing about there condition, the old tires hold air. Caps are original and are scratched. I am in South Florida so I am not sure if it would be worth shipping to California. I would like to trade these to someone who has some good 16" 5 on 5 1/2' rims with the inside style bumps for the caps.

Dago I can't believe your having trouble finding wheels here in San Diego. Go to any of the bazillion used tire places and ask, I bet you find a set within a day.

How much if I provide a shipper? I've received visitor messages on this board before. Thanks.
