Recently acquired an '86 J-20 running 9.5x16.5 tires on 8 lug, 16.5 wheels. After buying a spare, I've found these tires are a challenge to find and realtively expensive when you do find them - w/o much of a selection to choose from. A garage mechanic suggested finding some 15 or 16 inch wheels and switching wheel/tire size(s) when I need to replace my current tires.
Anyone know what wheels I should be looking for/asking for? Suggestions and recommendations always welcomed and appreciated.
Edit: That was not so clear...Maybe I should clarify: I am looking to know what other stock vehicle (years/makes: Chevy, Ford, Dodge, etc...) wheels have the same lug pattern, but in 15 or 16" that I can switch to (w/o alteration). I am looking to buy used stock wheels (if I can find them) as opposed to new wheels.
Many thanks!
