Not mine, just thought someone might be interested if your close. They look to be the inner nubs but that's nothing that cant be fixed.

I think 'special -k' was looking for these.

I'd like those,but too far right now.I found my 4th 8.25 and now have a powder coated set to mount my 12.50/37 SSRs on so I can get up under the '72 with the lift,Dana60,high-steer crossover,4spd...
If I got those I'd run them w/o caps in gloss black with Ground Hawgs or Boggers

I love the look of these kind of wheels with factory hubcaps, and Ground Hawgs would really set off the whole look to them. :metal:

Guy isn't too far from me, tempted to go get them...I too like these wheels with the factory hubcaps...

Just a note,no GM caps will fit.They are Ford-style...inner nubs.

Even better. Got thinking, I have a Ford HP60 in my truck, GM wheels won't fit. These look cool with the newer style center caps on them too....

COOL! I wish I could help.I always pick them up at Carlisle.I believe a tire store can get then.Probably will want more than on Ebay,though.

Well got the wheels, not sure what they are. They don't fit a Ford front axle, but fit GM fine. They have a slightly bigger hub opening than a GM, by 1/16" I think. I'm thinking they could be skidsteer wheels, the inside has a little bit of yellow. But 5 wheels for $100, not gonna complain.

I think I found the lugs on ebay, but want to be sure. I wanted to go to Carlisle to get those, but didn't get a chance to go.

I wasn't sure the center caps would fit those,but I measured what I have and they will.That'll be cool.I used black '95 centers on some D-hole steel wheels on my '91 Suburban.I always figured they'd only work on the aftermarket steel wheels which are basically flat in the center (wagon wheels,nuggets,Eatons,d-holes,etc).I just figured the raised part where the the hub caps snap over was too small inside.Great score!

I have been looking for a cool bias retro 16.5 tire for a reasonable price and just found them. Already placed an order for a set of 9.5x16.5. $119 each.

Thanks for sharing that.That's the one size still available for the 2wds in radial,too.Those bias plies are just right on a C/20.
