WTB or Borrow 4 Cheap 8 lug wheels and tires
« on: April 04, 2011, 03:14:53 AM »
I'm looking for someone who has a set of 4 8x6.5 wheels and tires I can use or buy cheap.  I don't care about tread or size.  Just need them for a set of rollers for a few weeks.

Smaller the tire the better really.  Just needs to be a 16"+ wheel to clear the brakes.

Let me know what you might have laying around.

Ya, I just need something cheap to bolt on till I get the wheels in from the shop making them.

They can be racing slicks for all I care, just so they are 8 lug 8x6.5 pattern in a 16"+ wheel size.

Those wheels you posted were from an 01 Ford, so they'd be the metric 170x8 pattern.  The 38's wouldn't be needed either as thats what I already have.  Thanks for the help those is searching for me.

I was mainly just looking to see if someone had an old truck with 8 lug axles I could borrow the wheels and tires off of for a week or so.  If not, I'll figure something else out till then.  I'm about a week out from needing to bolt wheels on it anyways, maybe a little longer.

Thanks again though.
