You can have a reputable machine shop or wheel shop drill and install steel inserts in the later model ('99-up) SD wheels to fit your application. I am getting a set done for my '77 F250

I have thought about that option, but up here, machine shops are pretty spendy. I have not taken the time to get a quote yet though.
yeah the draw for many to oem wheels is that you can buy them cheap. Once you have them machined they are more expensive than a used set of aftermarket wheels that fit right to start with. And I'd rather have a wheel built for the right bolt pattern... wheels are built in a way to provide strength radiating from the hub out. If you can avoid drilling holes in them, they will be stronger.
