I see from your profile page that you live in WA. Hopefully one of our WA members can help. This thread was started by a member who was looking for the tubeless 19.5" wheels which are much different animals than the 20" you are asking about.
To help guys know whether they can help it would be good to know what approximate width of 20" wheels you are looking for. For instance, I have one of the very earliest wheels that has a 3.75" wide rim which requires a narrow tire. Others can have a 4.33", 5.00", 5.50", 6.00", etc. rim width to work with larger tires.

There is a '47 1 1/2 ton in Everett for 800 bucks. (and he'll talk) My buddy and I almost went today to buy it and split it. Buddy wants the dump hoist and I thought I wanted some of the sheet metal until I had a frank discussion with the owner and he said it's pretty rusty in all the usual places. Tires and wheels looked good. All I want is the grille bars and maybe the glass. We could all 3 meet and scrap the rest...It even has one of them titles. Seattle CL he calls it a one ton. Maybe it's a '46.....

If you have 6" wide rims I'll guess that you have 8.25" x 20" tires. Those are I believe the widest offered during the '40s. Whatever you find please be certain to keep the ring and rim together as a set. The components don't randomly interchange. Stu

Wait a minute. You're wanting to replace a 17" wheel? What model is your truck? Is it a single rear wheel style one ton, or dual wheel 1.5 ton? If you have a 1.5 ton with a 17" wheel it must be on the front axle because a 17" won't clear your rear drum to my experience. Stu

If it's a tonner it changes everything. Starting with a different 5 lug bolt pattern. But since the request is for a 20" wheel, my guess is they are 5 lug x 8" pattern DRW style 17s on the front of the truck. And if that's right they likely are the Budd #44820s having solid/unbroken rings that can be a chore to remove. Besides, I'm not aware of there ever having been made (or at least produced for a commercially available truck) a 20" SRW wheel having the tonner's 5 lug x 6 7/8" bolt pattern. Stu

I try to avoid saying "never". Too often I've been sent back to the books and found an obscure reference to some goofball wheel.
The Ford tonner I know for certain is the only commercial truck to use a shallow dished SRW having the 5 x 6 7/8" pattern. That pattern was, however, common on WWII era military spec vehicles and was carried over post-war on all deeply dished SRW style 16" Dodge Power Wagons. These 16s were even used on some '57-'60 era Ford M-Hs.
The 1933 and earlier Fords, and 1934 and earlier Dodges, used a 20" wheel having the 5 x 6 7/8" pattern. But they will have more offset than the tonner wheels, and I very much doubt they would have a 6" wide rim.
Besides, you know the tonner 17" wheels were either 3.75" or 4.33" wide, none wider. Stu
