Thanks, You can get those wheels for $109 each, but you can probably find them cheaper some were else I just did a quick price check and to see if they are still around. They are eagle alloy series 185 16x8 4" back space and -11 offset, 5 on 5.5 holes. I don't have anything good to say about these wheels or the warranty, look for better. Post/add a pic of your truck and someone will give you an idea how much lift is in it.

The lug pattern is 5x5.5". It was a very common size for 1/2 ton trucks years ago and many other vehicles had it too. I am looking for a set for an '89 dodge and they are a dime a dozen on craigslist.

Factory wheel back spacing is about 5" or so depending on wheel. It is easy to measure a set of rims to determine if they will work.

The wheels that you are talking about are also sold as a summit brand wheel and may cost less.

As far as cheap goes, beggars can't be choosers. Buy whats cheap and available. If you are looking for something in particular, pay for it or expect to wait a long time. You could also look at swap meets and on ebay (best bet for something particular shipping is $$$ though).
