Need Wheels
I need four 15 inch 5-5 1/2 wheels for my 1956 F100. I have looked all over the internet, eBay, etc. and can only find after market reproductions. Does anyone have any that they would sell or know where else I might look to find them. Thanks.

Are you looking for original wheels? I still have my set of rims and tires that came with my truck. They aren't the original rims on a 56. They are Cragar Centerline look-a-likes. Very typical of the 70's. (There may be pic of them on my truck in the gallery) They are 15" with the 5.5 lug pattern. They have 235/60/15 tires on front, L60/15's on the rear. I believe their both 15X8" wheels. I'd make you deal if your interested. I'm in CA too. (I have the lugs and center caps also).

Chris,
Try searching for "hot rod wheels" or "rat rod wheels" on Ebay. There are usually a couple of acutions going for the type of wheels you are looking for.

Mid Fifty says there wheels are stock style wheels. They sure aren't cheap.
I don't think they have these wheels made special so you may want to check around with some of the wheel manufactures.

Check those wheels out, they are 5x5.5
I bought some wheels from wheel vintiques, saved me time on looking and looking around for some stockers.
