The local kal tire where I live is able to order an after market rim for around$250 a piece. They said it will bolt right onto the existing rear end. I haven't bought them yet so I am not 100% certain if they will fit or not. LMC truck sells an after market 17" 8 bolt rim also. I saw it in one of their catalogues.
I have done a lot of reading and searching on this form and I can't seem to find any reference to current production aftermarket wheels that will fit on a 1949 Mercury M-68 (F-3). Have I just missed them or are there none available? My truck has what I believe to be widow makers (maybe someone can confirm?) and I would like to replace them with something safe.

So this is from the catalogue that ended in April or May. So it's a couple months old. The only is it doesn't say the center hole. So I am not sure if it's right or not. Like I said before, I haven't ordered them so I am not 100% certain.
