So you are looking for a 16 in tall--- 8 in wide rim with 18 holes, you have a better chance of finding a set of 16x8 6 hole rims.

Thanx guys! I have the stock alloys already on the truck ryani. I'm looking for the steel wheels like the spares... for that "utility" look.

Yes, I have for two years, they are tough wheels and will hold up to offroad abuse. And if you get hit slowly in a tbone wreck the axle shaft will bend before the wheel..... Trust me..... happened saturday.....

I appologize for the ignorance in my first post, 18 hole rims. Should have said spare rim.
