Where to get cool wheels for an 8 lug wheel?

So most of you guy's have had a lot more experience shopping for upgraded custom wheels than I. It's weird having an 8 lug wheel and I just haven't found any upgrades for the old rusted steel wheels. Anybody got a suggestion or the ability to point me in the right direction?

Tirerack.com has an ok selection, a friend of mine got a set of Eagle Alloy 186s for his F350 and they look awesome:

Virtually any good tire store will have a nice selection of wheels that fit the 8 lug Ford, you just need to take the time to look around for what you want, I live in a remote area of Montana and all of the tire stores here carry at least 20 different models of wheels to fit them.

They are darn near worth their weight in gold but I myself love the Alcoa wheels these trucks came with. Plus they are rated at 3750Lbs per wheel!! Here are some links for you... Google Alcoa 167041 to see other pics.
