You picked it up from our very own Tech Tip on wheels and tires for big trucks:

I agree, for a work truck go 19.5, for a non working or infrequently used truck go the cheapest way, for a show truck go original.

Look for some used wheels first, they are out there.. Double check they will fit over the drums before buying, but
I think you'll be fine.
