The wheels are 15x8 Wheel Vintiques brand. I bought them from Summit as while the price is the same everywhere ($140 each in 2022), Summit offers free shipping. They have 4¼" backspacing. Mine are 5 on 5" for the disc brake conversion done by the OP, but they are available in 6 lug as well. They are also available in other 15" widths - 5", 6", 7" and 10" in addition to the 8" I used.
Hub caps are the normal repro caps available at most of the usual suspects. I got mine from Classic Truck Parts as they seem to be a bit less than most other sellers.
