a long shot

Ok guys and gals I bought my first bump side this weekend and I have one long shot question. First it is a 1971 f250 with a 460 manual 4x4 and 1 ton dually international running gear. My problem is that the rims are six bolt split rim duallies. Do any of you know of any rims off of a newer truck that would fit these axles? I'd like to keep it dually and stick with the setup I have I just want safe rims and not these ticking time bombs. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Ask FTE member truckdog this question, he can be found in the 1948/56 forum and is the FTE split rim wheel guru.

If the 6 lug wheels have a 7.25" bolt circle, were only used on 1953/66 F350's.
