Junkyard wheels for my '91?

Anybody have a good recommendation for junkyard wheels for my '91? I like a plain steel, utilitarian looking wheel. I actually took the hubcaps off of my F-350 because I liked the looks of the steel wheels better. I thought about having them powdercoated black but never did:



Anybody know of a similar OEM wheel I that would fit my '91 Pickup that I could paint/powdercoat black?

Just grab some black Cragar steelies off Summitracing.com. They're cheap, and brand new. Most tend to go for the "D" window or the "bullet hole" look, which I think they call "soft 8."

Yeah go with the Cragars. If you buy them, get them through discount tire. I showed them the summitracing site and they beat their price. Plus since I bought rims through DT I also got free tire repair and rotations. I think I ended up getting all 4 rims for around $160 with center caps

15x8 Cragar D-Window, 4" backspacing.

I bought them from Summit and spent a little under $300 with center caps.
