Wheels

This is a long shot, but figured I would ask before I buy new.

Looking for 15x8" 8 on 6.5 lug wheels with 4" BS or less.
Good ol'fashioned steelies are fine, if you have bead locks even better.

If you have a set of the 15" steel trailready 8 lug beadlocks that (according to TR) have not made in several years, I am willing and motivated to make a deal.

Thanks Rich and Tim. I'll give the "feelers" a week then I'll just buy them from summit and some weld on bead locks.

Those should work if you also have 3 lug wheels, I'll just stack them, 5+3=8
