Howdy, dudes. I found a smokin' deal on some used bfg km3s in size 37 12.5r18. Not my favourite wheel size, but the price is so good I find myself looking for rims. Anybody know a source of steel 18x8 or 18x9 rims that'll fit our 6x5.5 waggy hubs? Selection seems quite limited. Thanks in advance.
Yeah I’m looking online and it seems like most 18 inch rims are like weird fancy ugly looking wheels. There are very few “old school” style 18 inch wheels that I see.

Yup, same here, ugly modern looking stuff. I see nissan titan steelies have the same bolt pattern, but not sure about the bore diameter. Probably not, I'm thinking.
If the 18" are like me trying to find 16", the bolt pattern is the easiest part of the equation.
Pilot hole is next, which many match up and/or big enough.
But the clincher comes to the offset.
Here is where many of the newer wheels will be offset to keep the tires under the truck due to wider axles, where the older trucks need offset to push the tires out more due to narrower axles.
UGH......good set of tires just sitting there!
