Yes, I have seen 15" 8-lug wheels...in fact, I'm hoping to buy some 15x10" 8-lug wheels from a board member on Thursday.
Incorrect. It is dependent on backspacing and how much you are comfortable with grinding on the calipers.1971ford wrote:They arn't very practical.

Re: 8 lug 15 inch wheels
Sure have, Cragar makes quite a few of them with the big Honkin' F-250 sized center bore your looking for too, I'm sure many other companies do as well but most people say that it's hard to find them with the right center-bore.

Yup. Most of the 15" 8-lug wheels have a Ch3vy-sized (RE: small
) centerbore.-

I have 16x10's on my f250 and i still had to grind the calipers, backspacing can make a huge difference.
I am ditching the 10" wide rims this weekend though. Nothing but problems for me.
