(WTB) Rim Wanted 15x5 6-Lug Steel OEM

I'm still looking for that elusive stock 15x5.0 rim for my '62 C-10. I've found plenty of 15x5.5 (and wider) rims, but the 5.0 is tough to find.

The rim must have the 3 nubs to mount the hubcap, not the riveted leave springs like earlier rims.

The first and last pictures show a 5.5 wide rim
The second picture shows a 5.0 wide rim

I only need one more good 5.0 rim. Please let me know.

thanks!

Of the two close up pictures above, the top is a 5.0 rim. The lower is a 5.5 rim. The 5.5 also has a noticeable groove at the area shown with the measuring tape.

63AROD- Thanks for thinking about me when you found that little gem!

Please reference the two close-up pictures I posted earlier in this tread:

On the last picture, the rim has a groove that can be seen just under the very first part of the measuring tape. The groove is about 3/8" wide and about 1/6" deep. This is a 15x5.5 rim...its not the correct rim for me.

The other close-up picture does not have the groove. That rim is a 15x5.0.

Sorry for asking about the details, but its tough to see the groove (or lack of groove) details in the pictures of your rim.

I'm interested in your rim if its a 15x5.0.
