Default 1993 Dodge Dakota 15x6 Rims??? Trying to find

I have a 1993 dodge dakota, this is my first post on here and i am new to vehicles, so please don't be too hard on me. I have rims that are 15" in diameter, 6 inches wide and have that stupid 6x4.5 lug pattern. I want to find rims in which i can just take my tires off, and put them on the new rims. Are there any suggestions? Trying to keep each rim from 50-90$. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

May i ask where in the world do you find rims to fit this thing? I see all sorts of amazing custom done 93's and i want to know just what are some cheap, like AR baja wheel look a likes that would fit. I live in the midwest by the way so that wouldn't work out. Thank you though anyways!

Have you checked out the selection at places like Tire Rack ( www.tirerack.com )? They have AR Baja wheels to fit for $86 each; order with tires, you can get the tires mounted and road force balanced for no additional; and if you live where there's a depot, you can pick up with no shipping charges.

Thank you very much! Do you know if my 215/75R15 tires will fit on the 15x8 rims? That is the only problem i had with these, is that they are 8 inches wide

You can call them and find out easier and quicker than waiting for someone to reply on here.

What do you have now stock steal rims or aluminum ones? Choice's for the Dakota are slim to none especially at what you want to spend. Best choice and cost would be stock aluminum rims USED. I was lucky found a set for $55 on craigs list.

If I had about $1300 spare cash hanging around I would get these and some new tires a 17" rim would be better but 16" is all I can find.
