For a 74 Ramcharger


I'm trying to find some wheels for my wife's truck...I'm on the verge of getting it street worthy again.

(Current 15x10 Bogart's with 31x12.5 Thornbirds are too wide and the tires are 15 years old so I don't trust them on the road). I still have the factory axle's and wide tires eat up bearings, I've already had to get new steering knuckles and bearings due to damage from too wide of tires that have been on the truck.

I'm almost certain I want to run a Cooper Discoverer A/T3 Tire in 265/70R17 size.

My wife (it's technically her truck) wants wheels that look like the
Mickey Thompson Classic III ( http://www.mickeythompsontires.com/wheels/classic-iii-black/ ) I like these wheels because they have no nooks/crannies that make them tough to clean and are a simply/non-flashy design.


Unfortunately nobody seems to make a similar wheel in 17x8 to 17x9 size with a 5x4.5 bolt pattern. Isn't that what jeeps used for the past 25 years? You'd think there would be a bazillion to choose from.

I've found steel wheels that look similar (from U.S. Wheel) and I'm not completely against a steel wheel, I just wanted to go with an alloy to keep weight down. Another kicker is that I want exposed lugs so no wheels with recessed lug which require slim sockets.

Anybody know of any other wheel brands? I've been scouring the net for a few hours now and can't seem to come up with anything
