As far as I can tell they were only offered on 74-76 RC/TD's.
77 model year the 8" painted spokes and chrome road wheel became avail and only on 10-15LT tires. Haven't seen any factory steelies in 77 but ya never know.

Aftermarket cop wheels or Aspen/Volare Super Coupe wheels are options.

What is your bolt pattern? These are factory 15" x 7", 5 x 4 1/2" bolt pattern cop wheels but my truck is 2WD.

I believe any RC, TD, or PW with the 10-15 tire package came with them. I know my '75 PW bought new had 15x8s, dog dish covers, and 10-15 Goodyears. up
How many years came with plain 15x8 steelies and caps I don't know.

Not sure if Mopar made 'em. Stockton Wheel comes to mind for an aftermarket source. There are others, but get some feedback in the Q&A section before ordering.

I'd have to measure them again, but I have a set of factory plain steel 7" or 8" x 15 that came off of an early 80s RC. The ones I have are factory painted cream color and have the bigger bolt pattern. I think I have a set of 5, I'm probably never going to use. Gene

I don't think there were any factory 8" wides after 79.

Have you considered wagon wheels? They came on Dodge trucks and look pretty cool. I bought new 16X7 8 lug Keystones for $59 each and 32 lug nuts for less than 25 bucks.

These are 15X6 but larger sizes are available Keystone wheels


Here they are... 15X8

Not putting any hub caps on a wagon wheel.
I prefer the standard wheel with dog dish caps myself.
Unfortunately all I could find were the basic 15X6 inch wheels.
I used 'em with trim rings on my van. Doesn't look to bad.

I'm just the opposite.. I can't stand small hub caps on a 1/2ton truck. The factory caps(to me) only look good on 3/4 and 1 tons. I suppose if the wheel diameter was upped to 16 or 17 inches it would look better.

The lack tires for the stock 16.5 wheels swayed me over to wagon wheels for my D200.
