Anyone know of a source for 6" x 15" 6 lug steel trailer wheels? I'm looking for a plain solid wheel. I plan on running a dog dish style hub caps. Don't really like the old white spokes I have at present.

Thanks
Jeff

Welcome to HTW... Check with the junk yards. The old 50-60 something Chevrolet half ton trucks ran those wheels with the three dimples for the small center hub cap.

These folks may be able to help... http://www.akhwheels.com/pages/inventory.php?cat=3

Thanks;

I wasn't sure that the offset would be right on the older GM truck wheels.

Something that looks good on trailers is the wheels from 4x4 GM trucks, blazers and suburbans 73 to 87. They are 6 lug, the bolt pattern is correct but they are 8" wide is the only problem.. The back spacing is perfect but a little wider to the outside. These wheel look great painted to match the trailer then installing the factory chrome GM (bolt on) center cap and stainless steel trim rings
