20 " wheels

I was looking for some 8 lug on 6.5 / 20x 7 . I'm wanting a set of 8.25 x20 powerking tires for the 65 but I need some 20s and I want an old steel rims not a custom wheel

The 8 x 6.5” pattern wasn’t used on OEM 20” wheels. A 7” wide rim would also have been used on the really big trucks. Your 8.25-20” would have more commonly been fitted to a 6” or 6.5” wide rim. So custom wheels look to be your solution. Stu

The biggest I’m aware of having the 8 x 6.5” pattern is the 19.5”. But they aren’t really that close in size to a 20”, despite the seems like 1/2” difference. The 19.5” is actually similar to a 17”. Even if you were to have customs made, finding a donor with center discs large enough to fill the opening of the 20” rim is the challenge. Stu
